CN 5757, et al. |
| Description: |
A CN through freight traverses the S-curve near the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 14 Dec. '18. The train had two locomotives, CN 5757 and CSX 5322. Eggers Industries, 164 N. Lake St., is visible in the background. Founded at Neenah, WI, in 1910 as Hardwood Products Co., construction of the facility commenced in Oct. ’10. It was renamed Hardwood Products Corp. as a result of a merger with Mississippi Veneer & Lumber Co. on 20 Apr. ’22 (the latter company was formed by the same businessmen who founded the Neenah company). Eggers Industries acquired Hardwood Products Corp. in 1965 and renamed it Eggers Hardwood Products Corp. Eggers was founded by Fred W. Eggers at Two Rivers, WI in 1884 to make wood baskets used by farmers. They later started making plywood and other wood veneer products. There used to be 3 spurs to service the facility, now there is only 1. The east leg of the wye can be seen at the bottom of the photograph. |
