All Aboard! New Passenger Train Planned

A new passenger train through Wisconsin will connect Chicago, Milwaukee, and the Twin Cities in 2024.

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation says the new service will run through the Wisconsin Dells and Portage, with connecting trains to Madison and Eau Claire as well. The DOT is partnering with the Federal Railroad Administration, Amtrak, and railroads for the service expansions. There will be both morning and mid-day departures from Chicago and St. Paul.
