CN 5641
Title:  CN 5641
Description:  Heading general direction south, out of Neenah. The track to the right was the former CNW line to Green Bay thru Fond du Lac, Oshkosh, Neenah and the other Fox Cities. The CN train is running on the former SOO right of way. (Original Wisconsin Central) Both rights of way eventually ended up as part of the modern Wisconsin Central before being sold to CN. The mill complex to the rear is Neenah Foundry (plant 2). Plant 2 is now the only Neenah Foundry plant in Neenah, plant 1 was razed quite some time ago.

UP 5679
Title:  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.
