The remains of a spur along the CN, former GB&W, rails near Depot St. in Manawa, WI on 2 Jun. '13. The spur that heads into downtown curves to the left of the white building. GBW 1001 is partly visible in the background. I believe the ca. ‘51 cinderblock GB&W Manawa depot was located just beyond the station sign (right background). A photo can be found at: http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/. I haven’t been able to pinpoint the location of the 1898 wood-frame depot, but I think it stood about where GBW 1001 is now.
