A CN through freight passes the W. Cecil St. overpass (Timothy Hamblin Bridge) and parallels Harrison St. as it heads southwest past the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 29 Dec. '18. Train had three locomotives, CN 3823 and CN 3111 pulling as well as CN 2818 mid-train. The Bike Lane Ends sign is no longer accurate, the paint stripe to mark the bike lane was extended northward when they resurfaced the street earlier this year. |

CN 3823, CN 3111, GTW 4928, et al. |
| Description: |
A CN through freight and a CN local meet along Harrison St. at the southwest end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 29 Dec. '18. Through freight had three locomotives, CN 3823 and CN 3111 pulling as well as CN 2818 mid-train. Local had one locomotive, GTW 4928. A remnant of the former C&NW main line runs parallel on the other side of the train. Neenah Foundry Plant 2 & Plant 3 are partially visible beyond the local. Plant 2 opened in 1960 and Plant 3 was built in 1967. Plant 1 opened in 1918 and stood about a mile to the north, until it was closed in 1994 and eventually demolished. |

| Title: |
CN 3823, GTW 5812, et al. |
| Description: |
A CN through freight and a local meet along Union St. at the former Sherry St. grade crossing at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 23 Apr. '22. Through freight had three locomotives, CN 3823 and NS 4384 pulling, as well as NS 4064 mid-train. Local was headed for Waupaca and had one locomotive, GTW 5812. The historic Neenah Cheese & Cold Storage Co. facility and the Murer House are partially visible beyond the train. The WC (later SOO) depot stood on the opposite side of Sherry St. from those two buildings. 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. The Main St. overpass is in the background to the left. |
