Shawano rails 2008

Shawano rails 2008

I have some pictures from 2008, two years ago, that I haven't shown yet.

Shawano, Wisconsin, USA.

The CNW depot on the south end of downtown was a bike shop.

The CNW R-O-W is a trail, shown below.
Rails were removed maybe during the 1990's?

The picture below is courtesy of information from Tom H.:
Bruce, saw this Shawano Picture of the CNW station from 1973 from the CNWHS site.
Interesting to compare with yours of 'modern' day.
So I added the picture to this page a few days later. Photo Credit to the CHICAGO & NORTHWESTERN Historical Society
A direct link to their picture is Shawano 1973

The Soo Line / WC / CN depot

We didn't look for the tower that was at the RR crossing a few blocks from the depots,
and I don't even know if it was still there.

Steel statues near downtown show the lumber and dairy heritage of this area.
