CN 2849, CN 2885, CN 8851, CN 2169
Title:  CN 2849, CN 2885, CN 8851, CN 2169
Description:  A northbound CN through freight passes the depot/yard office and the sad remnants of the former C&NW yard at Oshkosh, WI on 24 Dec. '16. Train had four locomotives, CN 2849, CN 2885, CN 8851, CN 2169. The depot/yard office sits at the approximate location of the C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, plainer structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north. Historically, everything south of the Fox River was once known as South Oshkosh. The C&NW South Oshkosh depot was saved from demolition, but its current fate is unknown to me. I have seen post-relocation photographs of it on the internet, but they do not reveal its precise location. Some references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh. If it still survives, I have not found it yet. The yard was torn up in Aug. '16. There had been no cars spotted here since at least 31 Jan. '16. They did leave the passing siding and team track.
