Here's a fairly recent data point on the purported existence
of Madison - Milwaukee rail service. I grew up in 'Tosa
where the old gang remains but the folks are now in Madison.
I've got Mileage Plus on Badger Bus!
As of last Christmas time there was no rail service between
Wisconsin's leading metropoli nor were there any plans to
start any up. (The New Year's snow forced me to take the train
down to Chicago to get back East so I actually visited Amtrak's
Milwaukee base.)
Mom reports, too, that Greyhound is now serving Milwaukee to
Madison making it less likely that Amtrak would jump in.

Too bad, isn't it?
