Milwaukee Road roundhouse in Deer Lodge, MT - Chet - 09-04-2014 When I was a kid, I was lucky enough to have spent countless hours riding in the cabs of steam, diesel and electric locomotives as I had relatives working on both the Milwaukee Road and the Northern Pacific. I recently came across some old pictures of the roundhouse in Deer Lodge, MT. In the first picture I can actually make out my uncles house in the upper left of the photo. I came across these old pictures by accident while searching for something else. Looking at the top picture I am guessing that this was taken just befor the Milwaukee de-electrified as there was no date information with the picture. Now of course, the Milwaukee Road is long gone, but Deer Lodge still remembers them very well, and little joe E-70 and E-7 # 36 are proudly on display on the main street coming into town along with a caboose. |
