Title: |
CN 3875 |
Description: |
A CN container train parallels Union St. and approaches the Winneconne Ave. overpass as it heads south at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 15 May '20. Train had two locomotives, CN 2980 pulling and CN 3875 pushing. The building at left, 716 Harrison St., still used by Neenah Foundry, I believe, is in the process of being spruced up with a fresh coat of paint and some new doors (they have gotten to this end yet, obviously). The Main St. overpass is in the background. The area between the tracks and Union St., from Main St. to Monroe St., used to be the yard. I don't know when the current, significantly larger yard (extending southwestward from Winneconne Ave.) was built, but a map from 1909 shows the yard still here. |

Title: |
CN 3136 and CN 3875 |
Description: |
A CN through freight parallels Union St., passes the former Caroline St. grade crossing, approaches the former Adams St. grade crossing as it prepares to halt at the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 9 Aug. '20. Train had three locomotives, CN 3136 and CN 3875 pulling as well as CN 3020 mid-train. The Main St. overpass is in the background to the left. The area between the tracks and Union St., from Main St. to Monroe St., used to be the yard. I don't know when the current, significantly larger yard (extending southwestward from Winneconne Ave.) was built. A 1909 map shows the yard still here, a 1936 map depicts both the old and new yards. |
