Wisconsin & Southern installing cwr on Madison Sub

Wisconsin & Southern Railroad Co. continues with its welded rail installation on the Madison Sub. As of October, 14 miles of rail have already been installed by crews, extending from Vincent Street at Milton Jct. to just east of Stoughton, Wis. M/W forces are currently focusing on dumping ballast on the track and raising and tamping for final alignment before winter freeze-up.

Funding for the project
came from the State of Wisconsin Department of Transportation, the Wisconsin
River Rail Transit Commission and the Wisconsin & Southern Railroad. The
railroad corridor between Milton and Madison, Wis., is owned jointly by the
State of Wisconsin and the Wisconsin River Rail Transit Commission and
Wisconsin & Southern Railroad is the contractual operator.
