A new shortline, the Chicago Terminal Railroad, is set to take over operations from CP Rail on the former Milwaukee Road lines later this month. Chicago Terminal Railroad is part of the Chicago-based Iowa Eastern holding company which operates other shortlines.
The first quarter 2006 The Milwaukee Railroader featured an extensive article on the Deering Line by Tom Burke. The Milwaukee Railroader is a high quality quarterly magazine published by The Milwaukee Road Historical Association.
