This nifty historical work is about a short line railroad that has operated in northern Wisconsin for many years.The MT&W served the logging industry and connected with the Milwaukee Road and Soo Line railroads north of Merrill, Wisconsin. As an historical work, most photographs are in black & white. Most of the contemporary photographs are in color. This is not a pictorial, but a book with extensive text augmented with photographs to tell the story.
