Re: [CBQ] Froedtert Malt in Winona, MN

["Ted Schnepf" <railsunl@sbcglobal.net>]

Hi Tom,

Looking at my Milw Rd list of Industries for 1978, I see Froedtert was switched by the CNW and Milw, so Q would interchange to one of those roads for final delivery.  In the early 1970's Q/BN had a SW assigned to switch Winona.

The shippers guides are available at my website http://RailsUnlimited.ribbonrail.com/.  they contain a gold mine of information, even for connecting railroads.

Does anyone know what industries the Q served in Winona, MN? Was Froedtert Malt one of them? I have an empty NP covered hopper in a wheel report being interchanged to the Q in Mpls/StP and headed to FROEDTERT, but no destination city. Froedtert Malting had plants in Winona and Milwaukee. My guess is this CH was headed to Winona.

On the same note, how did the Q operate from Mpls/StP to Winona? Would the cars have been dropped off at La Crosse and then a wayfreight worked back to Winona? Any insight in Q wayfreight operations around Winona and La Crosse would be appreciated.
