This past week the Milwaukee Road #261 made a quick trip to Chicago to be a part of the filming of the movie “Public Enemies” at Chicago Union Station. The #261 ran eastbound May 15th from Minneapolis, MN to Chicago. On Tuesday May 20, they left Chicago and came to Milwaukee, WI. Then on a very sunny Wednesday May 21, 2008 #261 departed Milwaukee with a 6 car passenger train and NO DIESEL.
