WSOR 216, former SOO BLT 8-57, was 1 of a trio of MoW ballast cars spotted on former C&NW rails southeast of Reed St. at Plymouth, WI on 17 Oct. '15. I got a kick out of the old stencil near the base of the ladder on the right which says, "Keep off Roof, No Running Board," because the roof has also since been removed, obviously. 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. |
