IC 9601, IC 3137, and C&NW Kaukauna, WI Depot
Title:  IC 9601, IC 3137, and C&NW Kaukauna, WI Depot
Description:  CN local, with a friendly engineer, passes the south side of the former C&NW depot at Kaukauna, WI on 9 Jun. '15. Local had just completed servicing Expera Specialty Solutions, originally Thilmany Pulp and Paper Co. Designed in the Art Moderne style and built in 1947, it originally had a flat roof. The current gabled roof was added at some point after 1983.

C&NW/CN Oshkosh, WI Yard Office
Title:  C&NW/CN Oshkosh, WI Yard Office
Description:  The well-maintained yard office at the CN, former C&NW, yard at Oshkosh, WI on 7 Feb. '16. Normally this view of the facility is blocked by the cars in the yard. I've never seen this yard completely empty. This building sits several yards south of the location of C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, plainer structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north. Historically, everything south of the Fox River was once known as South Oshkosh. The C&NW South Oshkosh depot was saved from demolition, but its current fate is unknown to me. I have seen post-relocation photographs of it on the internet, but they do not reveal its precise location. Some references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh. If it still survives, I have not found it yet.

GTW 6221 and C&NW Neenah-Menasha, WI Depot
Title:  GTW 6221 and C&NW Neenah-Menasha, WI Depot
Description:  CN local passes the former C&NW Neenah-Menasha depot as it backs through the remnants of the C&NW Neenah-Menasha yard at Neenah, WI on 5 Jun. '16. The depot was built in 1893 to replace the original ca. 1861 depot. It was restored in 1994 and is currently home to Gries Architectural Group, Inc., and Sturtevant & Associates, LLC, an insurance firm. While quite rusty, the metal C&NW sign still adorns the trackside gable above the arched window. The original C&NW Neenah depot, built ca. 1861, was located near Galloway Co., 601 S Commercial St. The depot was later moved behind the Jersild Knitting Co., 333 N. Commercial St (about 400-500 feet out of frame to the left). It was razed after new depot was completed. The border between the Twin Cities of Neenah and Menasha bisects the yard about 200 feet north of the depot, out of frame to the right.

C&NW Spooner, WI Depot
Title:  C&NW Spooner, WI Depot
Description:  The northeast wall of the former C&NW depot at Spooner, WI on 23 Jun. '16. The opposite end of the depot receives the most attention from photographers because that is the end visitors first see when they arrive, so I thought I would post a photograph of this equally interesting end of this historic railroad structure. Constructed in the Craftsman style for the CStPM&O (CMO) in ‘02 by Ashland, WI contractor T. E. Pugh. It measured 288’ long by 32’ wide (52’ wide with the overhangs) and cost $25,000. The northern half had a second story for railroad offices. Passenger service ended in ’61. The northern half of the depot was demolished in ’63. The remaining portion has been home to the Railroad Memories Museum since ’90. The last freight train passed by in ’92.

C&NW and SOO Wisconsin Rapids, WI Depot/Yard Office
Title:  C&NW and SOO Wisconsin Rapids, WI Depot/Yard Office

It was built ca. 1973, when both roads had parallel yards of approximately 4 tracks each. Currently used by CN and UP.

C&NW Powers, MI Depot/Yard Office
Title:  C&NW Powers, MI Depot/Yard Office
Description:  The southwest and southeast walls of the CN, former C&NW, depot/yard office at the intersection of 2nd St. and Front St., Powers, MI on 3 Nov. '18. The original depot stood until at least 1969. I think it stood a few hundred feet to the southwest, within the convergence of the north and east legs of the wye (but I'm not positive).

C&NW Iron Mountain, MI, Depot
Title:  C&NW Iron Mountain, MI, Depot
Description:  The north and west walls of the former C&NW depot at Iron Mountain, MI on 3 Nov. '18. The depot opened on 22 Dec. 1889, to replace the original 1880 wooden depot.
