HLCX 1070
Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  HLCX 1070 rests on former CN rails on the west bank of the Fox River at Green Bay, WI, on 9 Jul. '22. These rails were originally laid by the GB&W/KGB&W circa 1895. The swing bridge was built circa 1924, to replace an earlier bridge. Some references suggest that these rails and bridge were joint GB&W/C&NW. I got all excited when I first spotted this locomotive here, thinking the FV&LS (or FOXY) was waiting to cross the bridge to work the other side of the river. My excitement quickly turned to disappointment, when I realized the locomotive was silent and dark. The scene is bracketed by St. Mary's Cement on the left, and Graymont on the right.

HLCX 1070
Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  HLCX 1070, operated by FV&LS (or FOXY), rests on former CN rails along N. Quincy St. at Green Bay, WI, on 23 Oct. '22. I noticed this locomotive as soon as I turned onto N. Quincy St. I thought I would finally get to watch the FV&LS (or FOXY) operate in Green Bay. Sadly, it was not to be.

HLCX 1070
Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) locomotive momentarily fouls W. 2nd St. as it works the former CN, originally C&NW, yard at Appleton Junction, WI, on 27 Mar. '25. The former C&NW freight house is partially visible on the left. The freight house is dwarfed by the enginehouse built by the FV&LS a couple of years ago. HLCX 3880 is parked in front of the enginehouse. Miller Electric stands to the right.

HLCX 1070
Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses N. Lynndale Dr./Hwy. A as it heads northwest with 9 cars via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Appleton, WI, on 27 March 2025. Train was headed for New London. The signals were not functioning, so a crewmember had to flag the crossing. The tracks and the street form part of the often ridiculously convoluted border between Appleton (this side of the tracks) and the Town of Grand Chute (far side of the tracks). On the far side of the tracks, Appleton is on the left side of N. Lynndale and the Town of Grand Chute is on the right side.

Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train approaches Municipal Dr./Hwy. 76 as it heads northwest with 9 cars via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Greenville, WI, on 27 Mar. ‘25. Train was headed for New London. The train is passing the former site of the recently demolished United Cooperative (formerly Greenville Co-op), N1868 Municipal Dr. Founded as Greenville Cooperative in 1931, it merged with United Cooperative in 2017. A massive new facility is nearing completion along the FV&LS rails at Center Valley, WI (about 8 miles to the northeast, as the crow flies).

Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses S. Nash St./Hwy. M (originally Oshkosh St.) as it heads northwest with 9 cars via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Hortonville, WI, on 27 Mar. ‘25. Train was headed for New London. The train is about to pass the historic Schwebs’ Hotel, built across the tracks from the depot in 1877. It was later renamed Hotel Jungmann, later Hotel Hoffman. It is currently home to the Black Otter Supper Club, 503 S. Nash St. I have not eaten there myself, but everyone I know who has says it is great. One of these days I will have to check it out for myself.

Title:  HLCX 1070
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses the Embarrass River via the former CN, historically GB&W, bridge as it heads west with 9 cars at New London, Waupaca Co., WI, on 27 Mar. ‘25. Most of New London is in Waupaca Co., but part of it is in Outagamie Co. I did not spot a builder's plate, but according to bridgehunter.com, this steel stringer bridge was built by Wisconsin Bridge & Iron Co., Milwaukee, WI, in 1915.
