All aboard! Wisconsin and Minnesota on track for improved passenger rail
February 11, 2020
A variety of railroad projects are coming together to greatly improve passenger service in Wisconsin, including “higher speed” rail.
They include: doubling daily service between St. Paul and Chicago; increasing the number of round-trip Milwaukee to Chicago trains from seven to 10; express service between Minneapolis and Duluth-Superior; and, already underway, more than $5 million in improvements to the Milwaukee Airport Railroad Station at General Mitchell International Airport, with completion expected in 2023.
