SUMMARY
=======
The Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company, also referred to as the Milwaukee Interurban Lines or the TMER&L is a defunct railroad in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Light Co. was the largest electric railway and electric utility system in Wisconsin. It combined several of the earlier horsecar, steam dummy and streetcar lines into one system. Its Milwaukee streetcar lines soon ran on most major streets and served most areas of the city. The interurban lines reached throughout southeastern Wisconsin. TMER&L also operated the streetcar lines in Appleton, Kenosha and Racine, as well as its own switching operations at the Port Washington and Lakeside power plants.
The first electric streetcar in Milwaukee operated on Wells Street on April 3, 1890. The Waukesha Beach Railway was formally opened on 25 June 1895. The first interurban ran between Milwaukee and Kenosha on June 1, 1897. Other lines soon reached Watertown, Burlington and East Troy. In 1922 TMER&L acquired the Milwaukee Northern Railway and added their Milwaukee to Sheboygan interurban line to the system.
During the Great Depression, services on streetcar and interurban lines were reduced, replaced with buses, abandoned or sold. Abandonments ceased during World War II, when gas and tires were rationed, and defense workers needed transportation. After the war, riders returned to their autos and abandonments resumed. The last streetcar to run in Milwaukee, and the entire state, operated on Wells Street on March 2, 1958. Electric locomotives continued operating at the power plants until the early 1970s.The last two remaining sections of interurban lines were to Hales Corners and Waukesha. They continued in operation until June 30, 1951 as part of the Milwaukee Rapid Transit and Speedrail Company's rapid transit service. The outer end of the East Troy branch (beyond Mukwonago) continues to operate as the East Troy Electric Railroad, a 7-mile (11 km) long heritage railroad. There were plans to extend the Watertown line to Madison, the East Troy line to Delavan, and the Burlington line to Lake Geneva. But none of these plans came to fruition.

Galt Historic Railway Park
Here is a video we did talking about the Galt Historic Railway Park located in the County of Warner just outside of Stirling, Alberta.
One of the best restored international stations in western Canada! A unique piece of early Canadian and USA history. the only remaining type of Port of Entry by rail in Alberta. A original narrow gauge station owned by Sir Alexander Galt, founder of Lethbridge Alberta and Father of Canada's confederation in 1867. A genuine learning experience, for students, wonderful hands-on rail experience riding the authentic motor cars on the park track. Crossing the Boundary, experience the trials and tribulations of the customs of both countries in 1980. - Bill Hillen
This video was created for the Great Canadian Plains Railway Society.
From GaltRailway.com:
Originally built in 1890 by Sir Alexander Galt and his son Elliott Galt partners in a consortium of investors from Canada, England and the United States. Alexander and his son Elliott Torrance Galt co-founded the Town of Lethbridge, Alberta in 1883, when he established a mine on the banks of the Oldman River in the southwest portion of the District of Alberta, Northwest Territories. The Canadian Post Office refused to accept the name Lethbridge for the community until 1885 because there was another town with the same name in the Dominion of Canada. Sir Alexander Galt laid out the street plan of Lethbridge’s present location in 1885 after his settlement was moved to the prairie level from the river valley. Canada’s Governor General, the Marquis of Landsdowne, demonstrated the Dominion government’s support of the Galt enterprises, by opening the Galts’ railway in September 1885 in Lethbridge.
Galt’s company, the North Western Coal and Navigation Company went through a variety of name changes as it moved into railways, and irrigation enterprises. A public park and a museum (formerly a hospital) in Lethbridge and a train station are named after him. Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier dedicated the Galt Hospital addition, which houses the Galt Museum, in 1910.
Sir Alexander was the founding President of The Guarantee Company of North America in 1872, providing fidelity bonds to guarantee the honesty of employees of railroads and government, which still exists today as the largest provider of surety bonds in all of Canada in public works and government services.
Straddling the Canada – United States border from October 1890 to September 1916, it is the only existing example of this kind of structure left in Western Canada. The International Border ran through the waiting / dining room. The Telegrapher and Station Agent worked in the center section, arranging shipment in Bond to proceed from Coutts, Alberta to Sweetgrass, Montana, and vice-versa. It was one of only two “Lunch Stations” along the railway line which ran from Lethbridge, Alberta to Great Falls, Montana. In September 1916, the northern part of the station was moved across the border into Coutts, where it was used by the Canadian Pacific Railway until the closing in the 1989.
In 2000 the station was bought by the Great Canadian Plains Railway Society and moved to an 35-acre (14 ha) site, 1 km (0.62 mi) north of the Village of Stirling, where it has been completely restored back to its original glory.

Major Winter Storm Series slamming over the pacific NW, Heavy Rain, Heavy Snow
A Series of Very Powerful Major winter storms will continue to impact the pacific northeast with 5 to 10 feet of snow across the cascades from Oregon to British Columbia Canada as impressive atmospheric river moisture slams into the region. Rainfall amounts of 5 to 15 inches with up to 25 inches in the rainest prone areas the see the most orographic lift occur.

Lyrics:
If I could write you a song
And make you fall in love
I would already have you up under my arm.
I used up all of my tricks,
I hope that you like this.
But you probably won't.
You think you're cooler than me.
You got designer shades,
Just to hide your face
And you wear them around like you're cooler than me.
And you never say Hey
Or Remember my name?
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me.
You got your high brow,
Shoes on your feet,
And you wear them around
Like they ain't shit.
But you don't know the way that you look,
When your steps make that much noise.
