| A CN slows to halt under the nearly completed reconstruction of the Hwy. 41/Hwy. 10/Hwy. 441 (a.k.a. Tri-County Expressway) interchange (a.k.a. the Polish Connection) as it parallels W. Butte des Morts Beach Rd. via former C&NW rails at Stroebe, WI on 30 Jun. '18. Stroebe is a railroad station in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI until 14 Apr. '16 (not Outagamie Co., where Stroebe was erroneously placed on this site)). The interchange opened to traffic on 30 Nov. '75. When Hwy. 10 was reconstructed and relocated ca. '97, this interchange was not simultaneously reconstructed to form a full interchange, but the ongoing, extensive expansion and reconstruction will make it a full interchange as well as increase traffic capacity. The former SOO rails, also in use by CN, can be seen at left. W. Butte des Morts Beach Rd. (background) becomes N. Lake St. (foreground) underneath the Polish Connection. Modern maps tend to omit the W. for some reason, it is also absent on the current street sign. Some old maps include the W., some old maps omit the W. Train was headed back to Neenah after working Little Chute and Kaukauna. |
