Iowa Terminal Railroad
Mason City
Looking west-southwest,
102 is sitting on track 67 which continued west about 2/3 of a mile, then
ducked down and curved north under the Milw ROW and continued north to
a loading tipple for the Brick & Tile. The brick building is
an office associated with Plant 6 in this location. The switch at
the lower left diverges to a curve to the south which is track 45 that
goes about 1/2 mile south before joining the main line along Old Highway
106. The grassy track to the right goes west to a mainline switch
on the Milw, now IMRL. Today the track 102 is sitting on has been
removed, and the two tracks merged into one, to make switching easier.
