UP ex-CNW o/s looking NW |
| Description: |
Looking northwest on the Union Pacific (originally Chicago & Northwestern) line from Camp Douglas. Rusty rail tops, vegetation poking up between the rails, and a red board blocking the line in the distance indicates a train has not run through here for some time. The first bridge in the distance is Highway 12/16, and the second is Interstate 90/94. |

UP o/s track looking SE toward CP main |
| Description: |
Looking the opposite direction from the location of the previous picture, we can see the switch where this line connects to the CP Tomah Subdivision (ex-MILW main). This used to be the location of a diamond where the MILW and C&NW crossed. Across the street in the background is the beginning of the Omaha Bike Trail, which follows the former CNW ROW to Elroy where it changes over to the 400 State Trail. This trail continues to Reedsburg where active track begins again, as the WSOR Reedsburg Subdivision. |

Looking NW again |
| Description: |
A slightly different angle from the first picture. I'm not sure, but I think this line is out of service from here to Wyeville, where the UP Adams subdivision comes in from the east, and it becomes active again northwest toward Black River Falls. |

Former MILW/GBW interchange |
| Description: |
Looking northwest toward Hudson Street, you can see the path that used to be taken by the connecting/interchange track between the Green Bay & Western and Milwaukee Road lines. The diamond was located a short distance down the former GBW line at left. All that remains of the interchange track is the rails in the crossing. |
