I’m interested in the MILW operations in Wisconsin, particularly in the areas of Oshkosh, Ripon, Horicon, Markesan, and down towards Madison and Janesville. Might anyone know of a book (with lots of photos) that covers that general area of MILW operations? I know there must be several different books on the subject.
Any ideas are welcome…

Description:
Milwaukee Road In Color, Volume 2: City of Milwaukee: “A 128-page hardcover book of all-color photographs taken entirely in the namesake city of the Milwaukee Road. This book contains the most impressive color array of steam and first generation diesels ever contained in a Milwaukee book. The intriguing saga of the Milwaukee is encapsulated in this colorful look at the road from the 1940s to its demise.”
Not sure if it’s still in print but you might be able to find “Milwaukee Road: Lines East” which was written by (IIRC) Patrick Dorin. It was released in the seventies and reissued in the nineties.
Your better bet might be back issues of the Milwaukee Road historical society magazine
