TPPX 70114
Title:  TPPX 70114
Description:  TPPX 70114 woodchip gondola was part of a string of cars being positioned by the railcar mover along Thilmany Rd. for pickup by the CN local at the Expera Specialty Solutions (originally Thilmany Pulp and Paper Co.) paper mill on the banks of the Fox River via former C&NW rails at Kaukauna, WI on 2 May '17. Looking east from Thilmany Rd. It should be labeled Stribley Rd., but it appears that the remnants of Stribley Rd. and Thilmany Rd. will now just be referred to as the latter. Portions of both roads were altered or removed during the restoration of the original Thilmany mill (behind me) and the creation of its new parking lot.
