There are a lot of communities in the southern two-thirds of Wisconsin that would not have the level of freight rail service (if any at all) that they do today if not for the state and county-level rail transit preservation efforts that began in the early '80s and culminated in today's WSOR. |

Over the hills and through the woods |
Description: |
The WSOR's Plymouth Subdivision, part of the Milwaukee Road's line north from Milwaukee to Green Bay and the UP of Michigan, zig-zags its way through the scenic Kettle Moraine region of eastern Wisconsin. The line is no longer intact as a through route, but this section from Saukville to Plymouth, Elkhart Lake and Kiel owes its continued existence to the state of Wisconsin and WSOR. |

WSOR 3803 leads L249 south in an easterly fashion across Slinger Road |
Description: |
L249 is ostensibly a Milwaukee-Ackerville turn, but they will often head west of Ackerville and cross over the CN's ex-WC/SOO main to work customers on the west side of Slinger and pick up/set out cars for their Horicon-based counterpart. |
