COLBY, Wis. (WSAW) - A group in central Wisconsin is working to restore a rail line that has been out of service since 2022. The Dairyland Rail Commission, formed in March, wants to see the Spencer-to-Medford rail line used for freight and tourism. Jim Schmidt, chairman of the Dairyland Rail Commission, said local businesses have expressed interest in using the line. “We’ve been getting a lot of requests for businesses to move to the area, but they’re looking for rail,” Schmidt said.
