    HI - Just wanted everyone to know that we are in the process of posting about fifteen websites on our internet portal. The websites feature information about the Milwaukee Road's activities during World War II. Specifically, we are posting our research on the two railway battalions the Milwaukee sponsored which fought in Europe. You will be able to find the sites at <harlowtonmuseum.org>; click on the picture of the electric motor then on the railroad links button at the top of the railroad page. Thanks, Montananext

    Nice website! Thanks for the info. For the benefit of the uneducated, you may want to clarify that they click on the picture of the locomotive..otherwise you are going to get numerous requests as to where the, "motor" is. We're thinking GE Boxcab...but most folks are thinking Dayton.

    If I could ever come up with better info on employment dates, I'd submit several members of my family to that MRHA list.

    I need to get to Harlowton again. It's been way too long! I want to take pictures of the whole area.

    Cool web site.

    I found this in an old National Geographic magazine.
