IC 3138
Title:  IC 3138
Description:  A train is crossing over off the Shawano Subdivision onto the mainline of what I believe to be the Fox River Subdivision to pick up a cut of at least fifteen pulpwood and woodchip cars off the siding at Stroebe in the Town of Menasha. I am uncertain if the CN still refers to the line to Green Bay north of Neenah as the Fox River Subdivision as my information shows the Wisconsin Central had.

GTW 5856
Title:  GTW 5856
Description:  CN train running reverse elephant style crossing over fro the Shawano Subdivision onto the Fox River Subdivision mainline. Once clear of the turn out for the siding, the train will back up into the siding to pick up a fairly long cut of pulpwood and woodchip cars from the siding at Stroebe in the Town of Menasha.

GTW 5856
Title:  GTW 5856
Description:  The CN train crossing over from the Shawano sub onto the Fox River sub has made it onto the siding and must continue until the rear is clear of the turnout from the Shawano sub. Once clear of this cross over, the train will shove back to pick up a cut of woodchip and pulpwood cars. As cold as the weather was, this move took a while to complete. I hope the crewman on the ground was able to stay warm.

EJE 663
Title:  EJE 663
Description:  Running to spot one car at one of the local customers from the former CNW yard in Appleton. The train is about to cross the intersection of W. North Street/ W. Packard Street and N. Appeton Street. The green space, Packard Place, may have been the location of a grain elevator. I know there was one in the vicinity, but I cannot remember exactly where.
