Dredgby Junction Photos |
Dredgby JunctionThe Dredgby Division is a collaborative effort between brothers Bill and Tom Breitsprecher and is an HO version of the Milwaukee Road. The railroad is based on Milwaukee’s Lines East. Dredgby Junction is our link between the reality of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad and our vivid imaginations. It features the transfer runs between the Menomonee Valley Yards and the Humboldt Yards and the scenic bluffs along the Mississippi River. No real effort has been made to strictly follow prototype practices or details – we have assembled our railroad from common products and equipment from the major model suppliers and retailers. We are just trying to capture the basic look and feel of this important Midwest railroad. We have chosen to let someone else worry about the details. The Dredgby Division has undergone a number of changes in concept and form since its conception in 1988. These photos from Dredgby Junction represent action along the right of way on the original layout built with Paul Breitsprecher when he retired from many years of fine service at UW-Whitewater’s library. While this layout is now "history," being dismantled in 1998, the Dredgby Division lives on in concept and this project represents the latest development and growth of our interest in railroading, model building, photography, computer technology, and family fun.
