C & NW West End job Passing Depot at Ridgeway,WICNW 4329 (GP7R) leads its short eastbound freight past the derelict depot of Ridgeway, WI. Oddly the depot has outlasted the rails. Service here end in December 1979, about 4 1/2 years after these photos. The state bought the rail line and converted it to the Military Ridge bike path. The Friends of the Military Ridge path restored this depot as their headquarters.
