Title:
Eight Mile Creek Bridge
Description:
The WSOR picks up some two bay covered hoppers from the siding at Fisk. The cars will be brought further up the former Milwaukee Road branch to Oshkosh for loading at the WATCO port/terminal facility. These GATX cars are on the 1910 built bridge spanning Eight Mile Creek. The bridge was replaced in August of 2016.
