WISCONSIN'S INTERLOCKINGS

BURLINGTON ROUTE

Savanna & North La Crosse Subdivision

Now owned by BNSF.

Basically a double track line with single direction ABS, except for a few short segments of single track CTC. On the Burlington Route this had been the La Crosse Division, headquartered at North La Crosse Yard. It is likely that the few CTC installations were eventually controlled from North La Crosse.
