NS 1065, et al.
Title:  NS 1065, et al.
Description:  An interesting trio of out-of-town visitors lead a through freight across Towmen Rd. via CN rails as it transitions from former SOO rails (in the foreground) to former C&NW rails at Shawano Junction, WI on 24 Feb. '18. This spot used to be named Fox River Junction, after several segments of the original C&NW main line through Menasha and Neenah were removed and a turnout was installed here which allows the bypass of missing C&NW rails by using former SOO rails. Train had three locomotives, NS 8945, NS 1065, NS 2600.

NS 1065
Title:  NS 1065
Description:  An interesting foreign visitor leads a CN through freight across W. 2nd St. as it heads southwest past the former C&NW yard at Appleton Junction, WI on 5 May '18. Carter's Caboose, a small, old, rail side tavern, is partially visible beyond the train at left. It was called Netticoat Junction ca. the '90s and Pete's Junction (possibly Palomino Pete's Junction) ca. the '70s.

NS 1073 and BNSF 8224
Title:  NS 1073 and BNSF 8224
Description:  NS's Penn Central heritage unit leads a train southward via CN, former C&NW, rails parallel to S. Main St./Hwy. 45 and the west shore of Lake Winnebago at Oshkosh, WI on 25 Oct. '14. I wish I could have captured a better shot of this unique locomotive during its rare visit to this area, but I barely got out of my truck in time to snap this less-than-ideal shot after chasing the train from Medina Junction.
