WSOR 216, WSOR 203, WSOR 107, MP 642902
Title:  WSOR 216, WSOR 203, WSOR 107, MP 642902
Description:  A trio of WSOR MoW ballast cars (at least two of them are obviously former SOO cars) and a MP gondola spotted on former C&NW rails at Reed St. at Plymouth, WI on 17 Oct. '15. This spur, a remnant of the former C&NW mainline, was re-installed in the last couple of years. These new rails are part of the ongoing rehabilitation of the line to Kohler, WI. The active former MILW rails are partially visible on the right. The tall, white, masonry structure is an old creamery. I don't know who owned it originally, but previous owners include Plymouth Refrigerator Co., Kraft Foods, and Glacial Transit and Storage, not necessarily in that order.
