Wyeville, WI: C&NW Railroad Facilities

I've never done a photo dump before, but this collection is worth it.

Christopher Pitzen: You can still see the outline of the roundhouse and turntable pit in the satellite view.
Scott Janz:Wyeville tower closed on 9-21-1984.

The east/west route is UP/C&NW. The other route is labeled UP/CMO in the SPV Map. Unfortunately, their Appendix does not include an entry for CMO so I don't know the name.

The image of the junction reminds us that Class I railroads do not like diamonds because they are a maintenance headache. So the "CMO" route is now two separate branches. There are no through trains on it.
