| A CN container train traverses the S-curve at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 27 Jun. '20. Train had two locomotives, CN 3850 pulling as well as CN 3236 mid-train. The historic Neenah Stove Works, currently occupied by Hafemeister Machine Corp., 635 Main St., and International Children's Fund, 619 Main St., is partially visible in the background to the left. The oldest part of the facility dates to 1857, when the Moore & Wells foundry was established. Arrowhead Park, a closed paper sludge landfill, is partially visible to the right. Before the landfill was opened in the '50s, the south shore of Little Lake Butte des Morts came right up to the north leg of the wye. Eggers Div. of VT Industries, previously Eggers Industries, founded as Hardwood Products Co. in 1910, 164 N. Lake St., an active rail customer, stands near the center of the background. |
