In 1944, the crossing in New London with the Chicago & North Western
was a busy place. Here are the trains scheduled to pass
through in a typical day:
Twelve trains passed through New London on a typical day - four
from the Green Bay Route and eight from the Chicago & North Western. The GB&W trains are from the December 5, 1948 timetable
and the C&NW trains are from an April 1947 timetable.
All trains shown in the table were scheduled daily unless noted otherwise
(x-Sunday means train was scheduled every day except Sunday, etc.). Thanks
goes out to Scott Sasse for
supplying this information. Odd-numbered trains were westbound on both
railroads and even-numbered trains were eastbound.
