Looking southwest along the CN rails from Towmen Rd. at Shawano Junction, Fox Crossing, Winnebago Co., WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI, from 1855 until 14 Apr. 2016) on 25 Apr. '20. Near the bases of the existing block signals you can see recently installed new bases and conduit for new signals which will be installed soon. I love the faded Junction One Mile sign. 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 (foreground). The track veering to the left connects to the former C&NW rails. |
