| Description: |
A pair of juveniles ran across the tracks in front of a CN through freight as it approached the former N. Union St. grade crossing as it headed northeast via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 15 Jun. '18. The little, vapin’ miscreants found it amusing and taunted the crew. In the background are some bland, new apartments, Union Square Apartments. They were erected in '15 on the site of the historic Eagle Manufacturing Co. complex, between E. Winnebago St., N. Union St., E. Commercial St., and behind a row of houses on N. Drew St. Eagle Manufacturing Co., makers of gasoline engines, tractors, and other farm implements, was incorporated in ‘The Flats’ at Appleton, WI in Dec. 1888. When they outgrew that facility, they began construction of their factory here in ‘04. Over the years it grew until it occupied most of the block. Before its expansion, it shared the block with the Ideal Lumber and Coal Co. to the east. Further east of that was C. D. Rowell & Son, Manufacturing, makers of car movers, fronting N. Union St. between E. Winnebago St. and E. Commercial St. All 3 facilities were served by C&NW. There was a diamond in the middle of the east end of E. Winnebago St., just west of N. Union St., near the small clump of trees on the right, for at least two spurs leading into that block. Train had three locomotives, CN 3072, CN 3108, GTW 5850. |

| Description: |
A CN container train passes the W. Bell St. overpass and approaches Kampo Rd. as it heads northeast via former SOO rails at Neenah, WI, on 16 Aug. '20. A remnant of the former C&NW main line, now relegated to a passing siding, runs parallel along the other side of the train. A pair of facilities owned by Warehouse Specialists, Inc. (WSI), both originally Kampo warehouses, stand in the background. Both have spurs for rail service, but the turnout connecting them to the passing siding was removed quite a while ago. |
