My hats off to the achievements by Progressive Rail…It goes to show again that timely service does pay off…
Hooray for Progressive Rail! Over the years of spending vacation North of Chippewa Falls, I watched as a railfan as Wisconsin Northern first took over the line, and then tried to make a go of it. I had hoped with the recent boom in frac sand that WN would benefit. When CN invested the money to reopen and upgrade its’ branch line between Ladysmith, Wisconsin, West to Almena, I wondered if WN served to benefit. I guess the jury may still be out on that one, but I’m glad WN has seized on business oppurtunities to grow the former C&NW line.
