A WSOR Cambria Sub Wind Turbine Offload
Wisconsin & Southern is taking delivery of several wind turbine unit trains from the Union Pacific this spring, and forwarding them to an offload site just east of Cambria, Wisconsin. Cambria is the terminus of the WSOR Cambria sub, and a portion of the railroad is used to offload wind turbine parts for delivery to the build site by truck. After photographing the flatcars that were still to be unloaded, I had a chance to tour the end of track on this onetime Milwaukee Road northern road into Portage, Wisconsin, from Milwaukee. The line is severed and dismantled for the last 15 miles to Portage Jct.
