Trains - Ellis & Eastern Railroad

The Ellis & Eastern Railroad (EE) is a subsidiary of Sweetman Construction Company in Sioux Falls, SD, a supplier of construction materials. EE operated about 14 miles of track hauling aggregate, sand, cement, etc. to BNSF interchange and between 2 Sweetman sites in Sioux Falls.  They also serve a few small line-side industries.  In 2017 EE purchased the Minnesota Southern Railroad (MSWY) which nearly quadruples their trackage and adds interchange with UP at Worthington, MN.
