CN 4705
Title:  CN 4705
Description:  Canadian National usually works Oshkosh at night, running a turn from Neenah. The local is caught here on the east side of the Jackson Street grade crossing. It is between Jackson Street (State Road 76) and Main on the north end of town. The train will be headed to switch covered hoppers stored on the west end of this former CNW industrial spur used in service with Bemis Performance and Pacur. A good sign here is two empty center beam bulkhead flats that could have only come from Noffke Lumber. That is a good sign of activity at the lumber yard.

CN 4705
Title:  CN 4705
Description:  Typically I would not post such a poorly focused image, however I found it a unique sight to find a light engine movement so far out from Menasha. The unit is about 13 miles out of Menasha, approaching County Road B and MP14 on the Manitowoc Sub, heading long hood first for Hilbert Junction.

CN 4705
Title:  CN 4705
Description:  A lone engine crosses the County Road B grade crossing at MP 14 on the Manitowoc Sub. The train is seen through the windshield of a vehicle, which explains the image quality, or lack thereof. The Saint John-Sacred Heart Church steeple can be seen over the trees.
