A CN through freight crosses Towmen Rd. as it crosses over from the former SOO rails (in the foreground) to the former C&NW rails while headed northeast at Shawano Junction, WI on 23 Aug. '17. Shawano Junction is in Fox Crossing (originally Town of Menasha until 14 Apr. '16). This spot used to be named Fox River Junction, after several segments of the original C&NW main line through Menasha and Neenah were removed and a turnout was installed here which allows the bypass of missing C&NW rails by using former SOO rails. |
