Retrieving Boxcar From National Warehouse-Bruce Street Milwaukee

Catching UP working National Warehouse had been on my bucket list for more than two decades and I finally got lucky this morning. National Warehouse just south of downtown in the Harbor View neighhborhood is one of the last industries left on the former C&NW line which once went along Milwaukee's lakefront.

 

The UP "Marsh Job" crew first pulled a long string of empty tank cars from the asphalt plant af Water and Washington Streets, went north after shoving back up the ramp track connection from Water Street, cut off the tank cars, then pulled the boxcar from National Warehouse before heading back south.
