To the right is the main yard.  The switcher in the foregound is on the west yard lead. The building in the background in the Campbell Soup Company which is a frequent shipper on  the AGW.

This is the east end of Milwaukee Yard where most of the switching for the cars takes place.  The arrival departure yard is on the left and 8 classification tracks on the right.  To the very right is the mainline that leads to North Island and the Port of Milwaukee.
