WC 9120         
CN MoW equipment, WC 9120 ballast tamper, parked on a rarely used former SOO spur that parallels Miller St. at Ware St. at Waupaca, WI on Independence Day, 4 Jul. '15. This is one of a pair of spurs that used to run side-by-side parallel to Miller St. and south of Ware St. to service numerous industries. Just out of frame to the left is where a neat, old feed mill stood for about a hundred years or so, until it was demolished earlier this year or late 2014. Another spur ran next to the feed mill. That spur was shared by SOO and GB&W and also crossed Ware St. to service industries along N. Oborn St.

Spencer Wagen General Nice. The CN had quite a few pieces of MOW equipment parked here in the late spring/eaqly summer. They did major maintenance on 4 of the 5 crossings iin Waupaca. 5 of 6 if you count Larson Road which is just to the west of the city. 7/31/2015 9:55:15 PM
