Milwaukee's Fish Creek Canyon, MT
Author: jc76

Anyone know a resource that has pictures of the Milwaukee in Montana's Fish Creek Canyon post electrification. I have seen a few pics with the electrics...any out there with diesels?

Recently, Rob L. posted a beautiful photo of the track in the canyon in late Milwaukee days to a Facebook Milwaukee group. It's an awesome place and I hope to visit it in the future. This piece of track was high on the canyon wall, maybe the most rugged of all the Milwaukee Rocky Mountain crossing. Maybe if we talk really nice to Rob he'll post that one picture here.

Best,
Jim Burrill

You asked for post-electrification photos of Fish Creek Canyon; I have none. But here's the shot Jim mentioned, taken in October, 1973.

Merry Xmas,
