CN 4704
Title:  CN 4704
Description:  CN local slowly crawls across the former C&NW bridge over the Fox River as it prepares to service Expera Specialty Solutions mill at Kaukauna, WI on 30 Aug. '15. It's unusual to see this train with only one locomotive. Bridge was built by American Bridge Co. of New York in 1911. A portion of the old Thilmany mill, saved from the wrecking ball and undergoing restoration, is visible behind the locomotive. The Kaukauna Veterans Memorial Bridge is partially visible behind the remnants of the mill. The current, newer, mill looms out of frame to the right. From its founding in 1883 until 26 Jun. '13, the Kaukauna paper mill was Thilmany Pulp and Paper Co. (a.k.a. Thilmany, LLC or Thilmany Papers).
