This update provides telegraph poles, roads, signals, foliage, and some track adjustments along the CNW/SOO mainlines between Ripple Rd and County Road Z.

This update also adds some additional trackage into the rail yards at North Fond du Lac, including a major section of the CNW yard. The CNW roundhouse and turn table has been built, although there are currently no tracks leading to it.

This is a large update that occurs on both the CNW and the SOO trackage.

Much of the scenery partially existed between 20th Ave and South Park along the Soo Line tracks. This update rebuilds several buildings and adds additional trees, driveways, etc.


I added signals to this stretch of track. I converted the Hughs Dr at-grade crossing into a viaduct, which is what it was for the full extent of the 1980s and the early 1990s. Industry, buildings, streets, and full scenery were added to most of this stretch.


Rebuilt the houses that previously existed, extended Hwy 45 to the south, added buildings, trees, and other scenery.


Added semaphore and searchlight signals.


Added fields, trees, adjusted some track elevations, added trees and other foliage.


The tracks are now laid and elevated all the way to the north end of the North Fond du Lac rail yards.

The primary changes in this update were to the SOO main line between the Fox River and South Park Ave. There is some track realignment along the Soo Line and the Milwaukee Road near Ohio St.

Renamed the route from "Paper Valley Route" to "Oshkosh WI".

The primary changes in this update were to the SOO main line along Division St, through downtown Oshkosh, and along the Foundry Curve. The tracks were slightly realigned in all three areas to more closely mimic where the track was located. The CNW/FRVR interchange with the SOO/WC and its old Hortonville mainline have been added along Marion Rd through the Deltox complex.

Updated

The ex-CNW/FRVR tracks were mostly untouched in this update. However, I did add wigwags at the Murdock Ave crossing and the Main St / Doty St crossing.

The ex-SOO/WC mainline was extensively worked on between Custer Ave and Lincoln Ave. The tracks along Division St were slightly realigned. Wigwags have replaced the standard flashers on the Murdock Ave crossing. The 19th Ave engine shed was added, as well as some track realignment between 20th Ave and 18th Ave. I have added speed signs between Murdock Ave and downtown. Speeds are guestimates, but I marked them at 25-20 between Murdock Ave and New York Ave; 20-15 between New York Ave and Scott Ave; and 15-10 between Scott Ave and the Division St crossing near downtown. The standard 25-25 exists elsewhere along the mainlines. I also added mileposts from 173 near Prospect Ave to 176 at the Oshkosh South Yard. I added several labels to tracks along both mainlines and both yards.

This update includes:

The FRVR's main line (ex-CN&W) is complete from Murdock Ave in Oshkosh to US-45/Main St/Doty St crossing just south of Oshkosh.

Two segments of the WC main line (ex-Soo) is complete in Oshkosh. On the south side, the line is mostly finished from Hughes Dr to 4th Ave. On the north side, the line is mostly finished from Custer Ave to Murdock Ave.

The track laying is complete from E Lone Elm Rd (just north of Van Dyne) to just south of Snell Rd (north side of Oshkosh).

The WSOR (ex-Milw) line in Oshkosh is quite unfinished but currently extends from the Fox River to the north and Morgans to the east to the 9th Ave / Rugby St crossing to the southwest.
