January 18,1977 Pony Truss Bridge M66 derailment closed the Line from Trevino, WI mile post 4 to Durand, WI mile post 18 permanently. The Milwaukee Road gained trackage rights over the Chicago Northwestern Railroad from St. Paul, MN to Eau Claire, WI. This allowed service to continue from Eau Claire, WI mile post 49 to Durand, WI mile post 18 on the Chippewa Valley Line.
