Remarks & Notes

MILW 5056 rests in the scrapyard on Jones Island with some RR cranes and an old gondola. The U25B would sit here for several years before being donated to the Illinois RR Museum. The fleet is also in, laid up for the Winter. Jones Island used to be a very popular place for Lakers in the Winter.
