UP 6959         
Coal for the Pulliam Generating Station in Green Bay heads north through Lomira behind Union Pacific power. The line is actually a CN right of way. (formerly Wisconsin Central and Soo Line) Unit coal trains heading to Green Bay have been a common sight over the years, but are becoming less frequent. Coal power is becoming more and more frowned upon and the word on the street is that Pulliam will be shutting down one of its burners within a year or two.
