Going through my negatives, I found multiple photos of rail yards through
the years.

The Humboldt yard is now bordered by condos, and a supermarket is on the
spot where this locomotive stood.

This yard is on Milwaukee's north side.

The industrial Menomonee River Valley divides Milwaukee's north and south
sides.  Since these aerials were taken,
all the Milwaukee Road properties in the foreground have been cleared for
the Miller Park stadium, the home of the
Milwaukee Brewers, and now much of the valley has athletic fields, light
industry, a casino with hotel, and nature paths,
including the Hank Aaron Bike Trail.
