A CN through freight passes the Main St. overpass and leans into the west leg of the wye at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 4 Feb. '19. Train had two locomotives,. The lead locomotive is passing the turnout for the north leg of the wye. The remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot rest on the opposite side of the locomotives. The rail sections supported by concrete blocks and railroad ties 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. |
