Milwaukee 547
Title:  Milwaukee 547
Description:  SD10 547 has three empty hoppers that it will exchange for three loads at Avalon. Once back in Janesville, the crew will head out the Mineral Point branch as far as Darlington. This route was once known as the "J Line" built from Rondout to Janesville in 1901, but it's days as a through route are over...at least for a few years until the Wisconsin & Calumet reactivates the line to reach Chicago.
