CN 9524 |
| Description: |
The 9524 has brought the covered hoppers from the 3M plant back to the former CNW yard and waits for it's next assignment. While the CNW yard is still going, the Milwaukee Road yard in Wausau has been torn out now that Wausau is only a one railroad town. There is still an ancillary yard on the west side of the Wisconsin River, along the CNW R.o.W. for serving the industry on that side of the river. |

Chicago and Northwestern Industrial Spur |
| Description: |
Branching off to head northwest across the Wisconsin River, the CNW used a series of bridges spanning the Wisconsin River to serve some industry along the west side of the river. This bridge crosses a slough and is the first of a pair that cross to to Barkers Island. From the island, the right of way crosses the main part of the Wisconsin River and continues onto the west bank. |

Former CNW Mainline Bridge Across the Slough |
| Description: |
This span took the former mainline of the CNW Line from Green Bay to Marshfied across a slough of the Wisconsin River in the downtown of Wausau. The CNW station was located on an island formed between the slough and the main river. The station is the building just past the billboard. |

Looking generally northwest across River Drive in the downtown area of Wausau. The line off to the right is a branch from the former Green Bay to Marshfield main that served industry along the west of the Wisconsin River. The track that heads to the left is the former main.

Chicago and Northwestern Depot |
| Description: |
The Milwaukee, Lakeshore and Western was the second railroad to reach Wausau. It arrived in 1880. In 1882, the railroad was bought by the Chicago and Northwestern. In 1899, the CNW built this station to provide service to its growing business in the area. The light colored siding on each end of the station appears to be the result of enclosing the open end platforms. Earlier photos show the same roof line, but with open ends. The bridge in the foreground is spanning the slough, viewing from the east side of the river. The line is currently operated by the Canadian National. |

Crossing from Barkers Island to the West |
| Description: |
A typical Chicago and Northwestern truss between Barkers Island and the west bank of the Wisconsin River. This line is an industrial spur that branched off the main just before both crossed the slough. This spur ends at Graphic Packaging International. Judging from how the rails are kept clear of obstacles, Graphic Packaging may still receive rail service in 2017. |
