Title:
NS 9674 and NS 9476
Description:
A pair of out-of-town visitors lead a through freight past the former Sherry St. grade crossing along Union St. as they pull out of the north end of the CN, former SOO, yard at Neenah, WI on 30 Oct. '16. The building at left is what remains of the Neenah Cheese & Cold Storage Co. facility at 434 Sherry St., Neenah, WI. It was built in 1902 after the original building was destroyed in a fire. The original 2-story brick building was constructed by Nicholas Simon in 1892, a 3rd story was added later. It was home to his N. Simon & Co., a cheese maker as well as wholesaler of butter, cheese and eggs, until he moved his company to Appleton, WI, ca. 1900. He was well-known both for the quality of his cheese as well as for making several gigantic cheeses. His largest weighed 12,361 lbs., was 8’ in diameter and 5’ thick, which he created on 15 Aug. ’11 at Appleton, WI, to be exhibited at the National Dairy Show held in Chicago later that year. By the 1950s this facility was home to the L. D. Schreiber & Co. refrigerated warehouse. A 2-story section at the rear of the building was demolished at some point. The parking lot at left is the site of Neenah's 2nd WC (later SOO) depot, built in 1891. This depot was torn down as soon as the third one opened, built ca. 1955 about 850 ft. to the northwest. Looking south from the Main St. overpass.
