CN 2562 and CN 5778 |
| Description: |
CN container train crosses the new CN bascule bridge over the mouth of the Fox River and passes the depot/yard office as it heads south through the former C&NW yard at Oshkosh, WI on 23 Jul. '15. The bridge was completed in Aug. '13 to replace the 1899 C&NW swing bridge. The taller building behind, north, of the depot/yard office sits at the approximate location of the C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, more plain structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north. Historically, everything south of the Fox River was once known as South Oshkosh. The C&NW South Oshkosh depot was saved from demolition, but its current fate is unknown to me. I have seen post-relocation photographs of it on the internet, but they do not reveal its precise location. Some old references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh. |

| Description: |
CN container train crosses E. 14th Ave. as it heads south through the former C&NW yard at Oshkosh, WI on 23 Jul. '15. Trains do not ordinarily sound their horn here, but this engineer had to because a handful of juveniles were dragging their bicycles over the tracks to go fishing a short distance to the right. |

A CN through freight parallels Harrison St. as it heads northeast at the south end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 24 Mar. '21. A remnant of the former C&NW main line, now relegated to a spur, runs parallel on the other side of the train. The facility partially visible in the background at the right is Amcor Flexibles Neenah (formerly Bemis until Jun. '19, formerly Curwood, Inc.), 1815 Marathon Ave. |
