A Brookfield, Wis., railroading landmark has been relocated. Thursday night into Friday morning, the town’s former Milwaukee Road station was moved from its location along the current Canadian Pacific right-of-way to a new spot about 350 feet away [see “Brookfield, Wis., depot prepared for move,” Trains News Wire, Oct. 29, 2021]. Estimates are that at least 200 people shows up to watch the move, which began at 10 p.m. The station was moved across the CP tracks during a four-hour work window that had begun an hour earlier. The building will become a coffee shop. The structure is in a suburb about 12 miles from downtown Milwaukee.
