Dodgeville no longer has rail service, but was once served by both the Chicago and Northwestern as well as the Illinois Central Rail Roads. The former Illinois Central freight depot still stands in downtown Dodgeville between Union, Iowa, Spring and Monitor Streets. The former C&NW passenger depot was relocated from North Dodgeville to the former Don Q Inn Supper Club and Motel property two miles north of Dodgeville in the 1970s and still stands there today. Dodgeville was the northernmost terminus for the Illinois Central line from Freeport Illinois. The C&NW line extended from Madison to Dodgeville and then to points west and south, with its terminus in Platteville. The Illinois Central line to Dodgeville was removed in February 1942 and the rails were used in the construction of the Battleship Wisconsin which was commissioned during World War II and served into the Viet Nam era.
