Westbound on the GN "Surrey Cut-Off" the was the short cut the GN built from Fargo to Minot. the old route was to go north from Fargo to Grand Forks before heading west to Minot. The line coming in from the right used to continue south to Absaraka where it met the GN line from Whapeton to Page. once the Cut-Off was built the line was abandoned from Absaraka to Erie. |
