Quality rail service enables Wisconsin industry and business to remain
competitive in today's world markets and attracts new industry
- and jobs - to this rapidly growing region, long known for its quality
of life. To ensure a future of rail service in Sauk County, the Pink Lady
Rail Transit Commission (PLRTC) was formed in 1987. "The purpose of
the PLRTC is
to take what steps that may be necessary and desirable to insure
rail service along the Union Pacific line from Madison to Reedsburg. This
may involve the state acquiring portions of the line and selection of the
short line operator along with all the necessary negotiations, studies,
and legal actions that may be entailed."
Members of the PLRTC consist
of shippers and interested community leaders. The county and
the cities of Baraboo and Reedsburg appoint seven members of the commission.
