Redwood Cottage in Lake Geneva (1885). It was built as a summer residence for Mrs. Robert Hall Baker using shingles from Californian Redwood trees. She was the daughter-in-law of Charles Minton Baker, who was district attorney for Walworth County and served in the Wisconsin Territorial Council. Robert Hall Baker served a term as mayor of Racine and also served in the Wisconsin State Senate. He was also a partner of the J. I. Case Company (today the Case Corporation). He died in 1882 and his wife built the 30-room house in his memory.

Mid-Continent Railway Museum's collection emphasizes the preservation of railroad items operated in the upper Midwest from the period of 1880-1916, what the organization refers to as the "Golden Age of Railroading".[1] During that time, railroads saw an unprecedented rate of expansion, growing in size in the United States from 93,000 to 254,037 miles of track.[2]

Three steam locomotives are currently under restoration to federal guidelines. The museum has 13 steam and 7 diesel locomotives including Chicago & North Western # 1385 and over 100 other pieces of rolling stock. The museum has the largest collection of wooden passenger cars in the United States as well as six of only seven surviving wooden boxcars built by Mather Stock Car Company[3] and the nation's last surviving fish car, Wisconsin Fish Commission "Badger Car #2".[4]

The depot is an original Chicago and North Western Railway depot from the small town of Ableman, now known as Rock Springs, Wisconsin. It was built in 1894 and moved to the museum to its current location in 1965. The depot consists of two seating areas separated by the ticket office. A gift shop now occupies the former freight room. The interior was extensively renovated following water damage during flooding in June 2008.

In addition to the depot, other railroad structures moved to the museum's location include a crossing shanty, crossing tower, section shed and water tower. Additional structures have been built new to house and maintain the collection but attempts were made to make the structures appear period appropriate.

This project was completed under the "blight" category. Cass St. was the location of a commercial property with a dilapidated Quonset hut, ordered for demolition by the City of Appleton. NSP funding was used to demolish the structure and construct a no-step entrance, handicap-accessible duplex; a second duplex of the same nature will also be constructed on the site. Both duplexes will be constructed via the School Build Community Partnership between the Appleton Housing Authority (AHA) and the Appleton Area School District. The Partnership joins construction technology students from Appleton East, West and North High Schools into an inspirational and powerful workforce.

The Wisconsin & Southern Railroad (WSOR) is a class II regional railroad operating in southern Wisconsin and northeastern Illinois. From 1987 to 1990, it operated a dinner train known as the Scenic Rail Dining (SRD) Train between Granville and Horicon, WI. The train was painted in a unique livery of yellow and blue and was pulled by an E9, number 10C. Like my standard WSOR E9A, this one is powered by two L-motors and geared 1:1.667. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
