That absolutely is the Medford Subdivision, back in the days when the railroad ties were actually replaced more often and had much more business unlike after CN purchased the WC. Now with one of the branch lines that CN sold off to Watcoa couple years ago, it is out of service with no business left and the track conditions are in horrible condition. Hopefully Watco will try a little harder to put it back in service and not just allow it to become a distant memory of what used to be. Certainly, leaving the line in disrepair will do nothing to get any business on that line as why should any business even try when the rails look in that bad of shape as it gives the appearance Watco doesn't care. Maybe Watco should sell the line to the state of Wisconsin where they would rehabilitate the many years of lack of maintenance under CN and make an effort to do some good like they did on many corridors that were looking at abandonment. The state was able to find and get a lot of rail business for these lines!
