WSOR 3805 |
| Description: |
The WSOR job on the Markesan branch passes the Stellmacher elevator in Fairwater as it heads back to Horicon at night fall. A lot of tonnage comes off this former Milwaukee Road branch from sand quarries. There are a handful of customers on the line. Though it still has a spur, I have not seen anything spotted at this elevator. I don't get over there to see very often. |

WSOR 3805 |
| Description: |
A typical set of WSOR GP38 type units at Ripon Junction. During the days of the Milwaukee Road, this junction is where the line went off to the east to Oshkosh or north to Rush Lake. At Rush Lake, there was another junction which allowed trains to run west to Berlin or north to Omro and Winneconne. The track that went to Rush Lake now terminates at Oshkosh Street which is a couple hundred feet in front of the 3811. The junction itself is within the confines of Alliance, formerly Speed Queen, factory that manufactures commercial laundry equipment. Alliance receives covered hoppers via WSOR. |
