According to the Hidy book on the Great Northern, the line from Sioux City to O'Neill controlled by the Great Northern through its  Sioux City, O'Neill, and Western was sold to the CB&Q about 1907 or 1908.  What about the line from Sioux City to Ashland, Nebraska?  Was this line built by a Great Northern subsidiary, too, or by the CB&Q?  I vaguely recall seeing a photo of the depot in Homer, Nebraska which was of GN design as evidence of its heritage, but I can't find the photo in any of books, so I'm wondering if I'm just imagining it!  Can anyone advise who built the line from Ashland to Sioux City?
