A pair of BNSF units were oddly parked on the crossover from the former SOO rails (background) to the former C&NW rails (foreground) along W. Butte des Morts Beach Rd. at Stroebe, WI on 3 Feb. '18 (both sets of rails in use by CN). Stroebe is a railroad station in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI until 14 Apr. '16 (not Outagamie Co., where Stroebe was erroneously placed on this site)). A through freight, led by another BNSF unit and a CN unit, rests at the southwest end of the former C&NW siding at Stroebe (out-of-frame to the left). Adding to the unusualness, a second through freight had been halted next to the other one up until a few minutes earlier, with its tail end extending back to here. |
