GTW 4911
Title:  GTW 4911
Description:  Having passed through Saint Paul Switch and crossed Highway 32, a CN turn is entering Hilbert via Hilbert Junction. Hilbert Junction is where the old Milwaukee Road branched off to get to Menasha and the Fox Cities from its line that went to Ontonagon, Michigan, from Milwaukee. The Soo Line had rights over the Milwaukee from Menasha to Hilbert Junction where it then continued on it's own rails to Manitowoc. These lines are now all owned by the CN.

Title:  GTW 4911
Description:  A Plymouth Sub local rounds the curve from St. Paul switch into Hilbert. St. Paul switch is where trains headed from Neenah/Menasha on the joint Milwaukee-Soo Line right of way were directed to either Manitowoc on the Soo, or onto the Milwaukee Road main that connected Milwaukee to Ontonagon via Green Bay line.
