Title:
CN 2718
Description:
A CN local disappears from public view as it pulls 20 cars into the vast rail network within the immense, collocated Verso Paper and Specialty Minerals complex at Quinnesec, MI on 3 Nov. '18. Champion International Corp. commenced construction of a pulp mill here in 1981. Pulp production began 1985, paper production followed in 1990. The facility is served via former C&NW rails. It was purchased by International Paper ca. 2000. They sold their coated paper mills to Apollo Global Management, LLC, in 2006, naming the new entity Verso Corp., Verso Paper, or Verso Paper Corp. (depending on which reference you choose to believe). It is difficult to see, due to the less-than-desirable location of the sun, but the locomotives can be seen beyond the tree line as they head south into the sizeable yard on the property.

CN 2246, IC 2718, CN 8002, BCOL 4652, et al.
Description:
A CN through freight rests along Union St. at the former Sherry St. grade crossing at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 10 Apr. '20. Train had five locomotives, CN 2246, IC 2718, CN 8002, BCOL 4652, CN 5261. 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, but a map from 1909 shows the yard still here.

IC 2720 and CN 5636
Description:
CN through freight parallels Hwy. 41 and passes the Hwy. G overpass as it heads southwest via former SOO rails at Snells, WI on 12 Aug. '17. Snells is now little more than a map dot in the Town of Neenah, Winnebago Co. A Post Office was established 4 May 1876, originally called Snell’s Station, sometimes referred to as Snell’s Crossing. This small, rural community once included a depot, cheese factory, sawmill, school, and stockyard. Snells was located at Mile 183 on the SOO’s Trevor to Somerset line and Mile 173.1 on the C&NW’s Milwaukee to Marinette line. The former SOO main line lies between the train and the highway. It does not look like any real remnants of the original community remain. Even the station sign, erected after the depot was removed, is gone. Train had four locomotives, IC 2720 and CN 5636 leading and CN 5639 and CN 8913 mid-train.

Description:
CN through freight approaches River Rd. as it heads northwest via former SOO rails near Gills Landing, WI on 24 Feb. '15. Train was slowing to halt on the siding at Weyauwega. It was a chance encounter and I was in a hurry, otherwise I might have noticed the large shadow which was about to fall across the lead locomotive.

IC 2725, CN 5691, CN 2298
Description:
CN through freight approaches the Main St. over pass as it traverses the west leg of the wye at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI 13 Dec. '17. Train had three locomotives, IC 2725, CN 5691, CN 2298. The rail sections supported by concrete blocks and railroad ties, visible to the left of the locomotives, rest atop the remnants of the foundation from the ca. 1955 masonry SOO depot. 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. The silo in the background belongs to Eggers Industries (originally Hardwood Products Corp.), 164 N. Lake St., a periodic rail customer. The woodpile background left contains remnants of old telephone poles which were removed from somewhere along the line earlier this year. The east leg of the wye is in the foreground.

Train had three locomotives, IC 2725, CN 5691, CN 2298. The Neenah Stove Works, currently occupied by Hafemeister Machine Corp., 635 Main St. and International Children's Fund, 619 Main St., is partially visible background left. [The facility has undergone numerous name changes in its long history, but if one were to pick a generic and historic name for it, it would need to be Neenah Stove Works because that is what it was referred to for so many years, through several changes in ownership. The second most common generic reference would be the Neenah foundry, because for many years it was the only foundry in Neenah, but obviously that could cause confusion today.] Clearwater Paper Corp., formerly Kimberly-Clark’s Lakeview mill, 249 N. Lake St., Neenah, WI (physically located in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, WI until 14 Apr. '16)), stands background right. The east leg of the wye is in the foreground.

CN 2726
Description:
A CN container train parallels Union St. and approaches the former Caroline St. grade crossing as it passes a halted through freight at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 9 Aug. '20. Container train had two locomotives, CN 2726 pulling and CN 3102 mid-train. 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.

IC 2726
Description:
A CN container train passes Kampo Rd. as it heads southwest via a remnant of the former C&NW main line, now relegated to a passing siding, at Neenah, WI, on 24 Oct. '20. Train had two locomotives, IC 2726 pulling as well as CN 2689 pushing. The former SOO rails, also in use by CN, run parallel along the other side of the train. The building in the background to the left was home to Plexus' Neenah Design Center, 55 Jewelers Park Dr., Neenah, WI. Erected in 1987 and expanded in 2000, it has stood vacant since 2017, when they decided they needed another new office building in downtown Neenah for some stupid reason. At least one tenant has occupied part of the building recently.

It was passing a CN local that was waiting to head to Appleton and points beyond, but the photos of the meet didn't turn out well.

BNSF 4087 and CN 5775
Description:
A large CN through freight has taken the east leg of the wye and fouls Millview Dr. while setting out and picking up cars at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 5 Jan. '18. This train usually takes the west leg of the wye and fouls N. Lake St. while doing its work, but MoW crews were replacing a section of rail at that grade crossing at the time. The Fox Valley Energy Center (formerly Minergy Fox Valley Glass Aggregate Plant) loomed beyond the train, until demolition was completed in the spring of '16. Opened in Jan. '98, it stood idle since 15 Jun. '13.

A trio of BNSF units lead a unit train of 2-bay covered hoppers across Dixie Rd., headed northeast via CN, former SOO, rails at Town of Vinland, Winnebago Co., WI on 27 Jan. '18. Another unit train of 2-bay covered hoppers, led by a pair of BNSF units and a CN unit, waits to head the opposite direction from Dixie Siding, a remnant of the former C&NW main line. If I had known both trains were led by BNSF units, I would have attempted to capture a decent shot of the meet.

BNSF 4626 and BNSF 7883
Description:
A pair of BNSF units were oddly parked on the crossover from the former SOO rails (background) to the former C&NW rails (foreground) along W. Butte des Morts Beach Rd. at Stroebe, WI on 3 Feb. '18 (both sets of rails in use by CN). Stroebe is a railroad station in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI until 14 Apr. '16 (not Outagamie Co., where Stroebe was erroneously placed on this site)). A through freight, led by another BNSF unit and a CN unit, rests at the southwest end of the former C&NW siding at Stroebe (out-of-frame to the left). Adding to the unusualness, a second through freight had been halted next to the other one up until a few minutes earlier, with its tail end extending back to here.

Description:
CN ore train crosses the Menasha Channel of the Fox River via former joint MILW/ SOO bridge and approaches the junction with the former C&NW mainline as it crawls through Menasha, WI pulling 215 ore cars on 5 May '14. It pulled up as far as the swing bridge over the Fox River Navigation Canal, halted, then reversed to back into the former SOO yard at Neenah. Train had four locomotives, CN 5542, BCOL 4651, CN 8821, and CN 2007. I am left to wonder if there has ever been this much horsepower on this line.
