| A CN through freight passes the Main St. overpass and Arrowhead Park while taking the west leg of the wye at the norti end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 24 Jun. '18. Train had two locomotives, CN 8101 and BNSF 4290. The tank cars at left are parked on the north leg of the wye. The remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot are partially visible t` the right of the locomotives. The rail sections supported by concrete blocks and railroad ties (near the center of the photograph) rest atop the remnants of the foundation. The masonry depot was built to replace the wooden depot built in 1891 on Sherry St., about 850 ft. to the southeast, which was torn down soon after the new one opened. |
