A CN local passes the Main St. overpass as it traverses the west leg of the wye at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 15 May '20. The remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot are partially visible beyond the lead locomotive. There are rail sections supported by concrete blocks and railroad ties stacked upon it. It 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. The east leg of the wye is in the foreground. |
