Duplainville is one of the Midwest's most celebrated railfan destinations, where the CPKC double-track Watertown Subdivision crosses the CN single-track Waukesha Subdivision at an at-grade diamond. Located in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, about 15 miles west of Milwaukee, the crossing sees approximately 53 trains per day from two Class I Canadian railroads plus Amtrak's Empire Builder.
