milw-E29Adsa.jpg Butte Montana. July 4th, 1969.

I found this historic late 1960's era photograph at My Link page Fallen Flags.Org, located to the right of Your computer screen.

The former Milwaukee Road, was a big time user of electric freight and passenger locomotives in America's Pacific Northwest region. Although Milwaukee Road passenger trains had quit serving this area during the early 1960's, electric freight operation would continue until July of 1974.

These electric motors, are viewed at Butte Montana in 1969.
