When the CNW was still around they used FRV power north of Green Bay and the FRV crews used the CNW power from GB to Butler. when the UP came along it was all Uncle Pete power. I also have video of the first UP train to arrive. They sold the line to the WC shortly after getting it.
That's a rally-fast bell on the crossing at the end of the video! (0:42)

Do you have any of these left: End of the Line: C&NW in the NorthWoods 1994-95
More NorthWoods Rail: E&LS, FRVR, GBW, & NB&N
I have been looking for something like this for a very long time.....

Nice train! Was UP power used on WC or CN trains? Because the farthest north the UP gets is Sheyboygan, Wisconsin. Thanx fur sharin'!
