| A WSOR boxcar is set on the north track that connected the Milwaukee Road with the CNW line in Ripon, WI. This track heads east and now ends at the Seneca canning plant, rather than going to Fond du Lac as it once did. Straight down the rail is north where Ripon Jct. is located. Ripon Junction is where the tracks diverge and run to either Oshkosh or towards Rush Lake and a former junction there. The tracks that would have gone to Rush Lake and beyond now end at the side of a factory on the north side of Ripon. However, the actual useage of this ends at the Alliance (former Speed Queen) factory where a large pile of gravel protects Oshkosh Street. The line to Oshkosh is still open and well used. |
