Description:  New Glarus was famous for its cheese and dairy farms. Somewhere, lost to history, the branch was known to locals as the "Limburger Special".... a name derived from a particular flavor of cheese. This photo is the last trip from New Glarus. Rails first reached New Glarus in 1887. Bob Dorr photo

Title:  Milwaukee 508
Description:  The last trip on the New Glarus branch. Crossing the IC Madison branch at Monticello. In the early 1960's, the Milwaukee Road proposed abandoning the branch between Brodhead and Monticello and securing trackage rights over the IC Madison district to serve Monticello and New Glarus. But, in 1962, Pet Milk announced the closing of their New Glarus plant and rail business fell quickly after that. Bob Dorr photo
