Has any equipment left the Kettle Moraine Railway, and if so, where is it going? Also, what is the physical status of the right-of-way? |

Kurt, I heard last week that Steven is still working on dispositions, and that no big stuff (locos, cars) have left. I haven't heard anything about track being pulled, either. JAC |

Hi Kurt, spoke to Steven several times about the remaining equipment and tooling, etc. There are several different owners represented in what remains. Some, like the wooden car and the 4-6-0 are for sale, I am told the operating stock can be leased or perhaps purchased. A lot of smaller stuff was auctioned off a couple months back. The depot and yard property remain in the family for now, but the ROW is being sold last I heard. the area is close enough to suburban Milwaukee to be developable. The Tidewater Cypress 2-6-2 kit went to Illinois into private ownership. A set of composite trucks and bolsters are slated to go to Smithsonian I am told. I believe Steven would entertain offers in his few spare minutes in Chama. Dave irondave@bellsouth.net |
