| This is the new North Island bench work. This new expanded yard replaced a cramped yard with very little switching. Freights had to double or triple into the old yard. With the carferry and the new intemodal terminal the New North Island had become the Milwaukee Port Authority Railroad. My brother's BNP runs in and out of this yard to access the carferry. |
