| The Interurban Railroad provided passenger service between Port Washington and Milwaukee for over 40 years. The station on Center Street became the Colonial Photography Studio after service was discontinued and functioned as such until recently. |
 |
| The Interurban ran along the western edge of Cedarburg until 1948. The first major subdivision, Westlawn, was built in the field to the right in 1953 and 1954. |
 |
| The Interurban provided a popular method of traveling to and from Milwaukee. Trains composed of one, two or three cars were used, depending upon the number of passengers expected. Even so, some riders occasionally had to stand, as shown in this photograph taken on one of the train’s last trips before service was discontinued on March 31, 1948. |
