Series: 4. Shops, 1881-1984
: These documents comprise all of the diverse historical documents related to
the Milwaukee Road shops – correspondence, manuals, drawings, reports, and
requisitions, specific to the Milwaukee, Madison, and Chicago shops. These
documents span mostly the 1930s through the mid-1980s, with many drawings of
specific shop facilities including repair shops and roundhouses, along with
equipment installed in those facilities for servicing railroad assets and
their manuals. A comprehensive collection of Request for Information
correspondence for this time period is also present.
