Northbound on the ex-MILW Valley Sub, CN 5430 hammers the diamond with the ex-Soo Line Superior Sub |
| Description: |
Junction City is one of Wisconsin's busiest railroad hot spots. Over the course of various mergers through the years, both lines here fell under the control of Wisconsin Central LTD in the late 1980s. Their flag fell to CN in 2001. Nineteen years, 354 days elapsed between the last time I shot a train here, and this day. Those pictures are the first ones in this album. I didn't intend for it to happen, but it just kept getting kicked down the road. For some reason I had it in my head that it was a long ways away from me living in Madison, even though it's really only another hour beyond Wisconsin Dells, where I've shot CP(KC) trains on a quite regular basis over the years. The maroon and gold SD45s may be gone, but this pair of SD60s makes for a nice link back to the days when high-horsepower, spartan cab EMDs were the rule rather than the exception. I'll definitely be back again on a much shorter interval! |

CN 5430 disturbs the peace of this quaint central Wisconsin town |
| Description: |
Crossing County Highway P/old US Highway 10 (now routed on a 4-lane bypass just to the north). They're used to it, as numerous CN trains pass through every day, mostly on the ex-Soo Line Superior Sub, but L581 northbound and southbound is one of several daily on the ex-Milwaukee Road Valley Sub. Junction City is classic small-town Wisconsin, with an approximately 1:1 (or possibly higher) ratio of taverns to residents. Many of them have local and/or vintage beer signs, such as Point Beer just behind the crossing signal, and (hard to see) PBR just behind that. The one thing that sets Junction City apart in this day and age is the extremely vibrant railroad presence, while so many similarly-sized communities just have a dirt-paved bike path where C&NW or Milwaukee Road trains once rumbled through, or perhaps stopped at the station. It's all freight in Junction City for over 50 years now, but the action is nearly continuous 24/7/365. |

CN 2908 leading a southbound Superior Sub potash train overtakes M344 waiting in the siding |
| Description: |
M344 normally runs from Canada to Stevens Point, but with over 200 cars bound for Wis. Rapids and points west on the ex-GBW today the train was split here at Junction City. This section will take the southwest connector to go south on the Valley Sub. |

CN 2275 and 2770 take the SW connection with M344 heading south on the Valley |
| Description: |
Superior Sub runs left to right across the foreground, diamond with the Valley Sub is just visible in the lower left. Perhaps unique for a railroad diamond in Wisconsin in this day and age, connector tracks in all four quadrants are still in place and in service at Junction City, along with RTC-controlled sidings just to the south (visible ahead and to the left of 2275) on the Valley, and west on the Superior. |
