UP 5679 |
| Description: |
What would appear to be the lead unit of a UP train is actually the lead unit of a CN manifest in Oshkosh. The track it is on was once a part of the CNW system, but was sold off to the FRVRR long before the UP took control of the CNW. The line here became part of the regional Wisconsin Central and then the CN. |

UP 5679 |
| Description: |
The CN train led by UP 5679 rolls under the Cecil Street overpass as it enters the heart of the former Soo Line yard at Neenah. The yard used to be mainly contained between Winneconne Avenue and Cecil Streets until overpasses were put in. The yard has expanded to the north and south with holding tracks since the overpass construction. The former CNW right of way which deviated to the east from the south end of this yard and ran through the center of Neenah now comes to an end about 1/4 mile up the line at a rail served factory. This section of CNW line has also been modified and is part of the yard facility here. |
