Looking south from the site of the former CNW crossing of the Milwuakee Road in Ripon, WI. The track going off to the right is a connecting track to the CNW line to Princeton and beyond. This skirts along the edge of the Gothic Mill Pond and now ends about a quarter mile from this turnout, short of Scott Street. The CNW depot was located along this stretch of rail, now it is only a storage track. Ahead, between the turnouts is a short bridge that crosses the Gothic Mill Pond. The Milwaukee's depot was just around the bend. It is no longer standing. This siding the hoppers are on is now used to transload bulk materials into covered hoppers. |
