| Description: |
CN local crosses Givens Rd. as it heads northwest via former C&NW rails at Town of Hortonia, Outagamie Co., WI (about 200 ft. north of the current border of Hortonville) on 21 Feb. '18. I believe the facility partially visible at right used to be part of the large GripTite nail factory, but I am not certain (I remember, years ago, seeing a sign for a familiar brand of nails). I haven't learned when they moved out or changed names. The facility has been sub-divided and currently houses multiple businesses, including this portion used by Honey Bee Ware. The facility does not presently benefit from rail service, but it used to. |

IC 3138 |
| Description: |
CN local slows to halt alongside a string of about six GLVX pulpwood cars at what remains of the former GB&W yard at New London, WI on 21 Feb. '18. Consist included UP 78087. The pulpwood cars are owned by Marion Plywood Corp. (est. 1894) and when loaded cars arrive, the logs are trans-loaded to trucks for the 24-mile trip to Marion, WI. Marion had rail service, courtesy of C&NW, from 1879 to 1982. The reporting mark is based on Great Lakes Veneer, Inc., a subsidiary of Marion Plywood Corp. and co-located at its Marion, WI facility. The GB&W depot once stood here, along the east (right) side of the north end of Avon St. It was later moved two blocks east to the N. Shawano St. grade crossing. It was later moved to a nearby business. |
