Gates, bells, and flashing red lights guarding a dead-end street that doesn’t touch the tracks!? CN through freight crosses the recently closed (within the past week or so) N. Superior St. grade crossing as it heads northeast over former C&NW rails north of downtown Appleton, WI on 25 Nov. '13. Train had two locomotives, CN 2156 pulling and CN 2310 pushing. |

CN 2156, CN 5603, CN 2175 |
| Description: |
CN through freight traverses the S-curve at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 26 Mar. '17. The remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot are at left. There are rail sections supported by concrete blocks and railroad ties stacked upon it. It was built to replace the wooden depot built in 1891 on Sherry St., about 850 ft. to the southeast, which was torn down soon after the new one opened. Eggers Industries, 164 N. Lake St., Neenah, WI, is visible in the background. |

CN 2259 and CN 2156 |
| Description: |
A CN container train parallels Harrison St. and approaches the W. Cecil St. overpass (Timothy Hamblin Bridge) as it heads northeast past the south end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 10 Aug. '18. The beige facility in the background is Voith (Voith Paper Fabric & Roll Systems, Inc.), 375 Byrd Ave. They have two spurs, but the turnout which once connected them to active rails has been gone for quite a while. Neenah Foundry Plant 2 & Plant 3 are visible beyond that. Plant 2 opened in 1960 and Plant 3 was built in 1967. Plant 1 opened in 1918 and stood about half-a-mile to the north, until it was closed in 1994 and eventually demolished. The silo of American Colloid Co., 901 Acco Ave., an active rail customer, is visible in the background to the right. A remnant of the former C&NW main line can be seen at left. |
