Description: |
A CN container train parallels Harrison St. and approaches the former Byrd Ave. grade crossing as it heads northeast at the south end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 7 Sep. '19. Neenah Foundry Plant 2 & Plant 3 dominate the background at left. Plant 2 opened in 1960 and Plant 3 was built in 1967. Plant 1 opened in 1918 and stood about a mile to the north, until it was closed in 1994 and eventually demolished. A remnant of the former C&NW main line (now relegated to a passing siding) runs parallel on the other side of the train. |

A CN through freight passes the Main St. overpass and traverses the west leg of the wye at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 24 Jun. '20. The remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot lie to the right of the lead locomotive.
