CN 2582 |
| Description: |
Saturday afternoon destination unknown, to me anyway. CN general freight passes under U.S. 41 as it runs along Green Bay Road. The location is either Neenah, Town of Menasha or maybe even Town of Neenah, as these politcal boundries are very convoluted. Never the less, it's on the old Soo Line heading towards Stevens Point thru the Neenah Yard. |

| Description: |
CN train heading west thru the Town of Menasha. The train has recently passed thru the Neenah Yard and is heading towards Stevens Point on the former Soo Line main. The units are about to cross American Drive after running parallel to N. Green Bay Road under U.S. 41. There is a slight grade heading west out of Neenah and some of the trains labor as they depart. This particular train seemed to be working the loco's fairly hard. |

CN 2665 |
| Description: |
A CN train rolls down Byron Hill towards Fond du Lac at Hamilton. Hamilton was originally known as Ketcham Post Office, with a post office and a railroad station, formed to serve the Hamilton Stone Quarries in 1883. In 1894, Irenus K. Hamilton purchased the land and renamed it Hamilton Post Office. Old foundations can still be found in the treeline along with quite a bit of long out of service trackwork. A little of this track can be seen inside the curve, just above the top fence rail. |

CN 2665 |
| Description: |
Headed railroad "west", the 2665 leads a train downgrade on Byron Hill towards Fond du Lac. The location is known as Hamilton on detailed maps, in the vicinity of the grade crossing with CTY HWY B (Hamilton Road). Originally formed in 1883, the community was named Ketcham Post Office, named after the first president of the Hamilton Stone Quarries. The quarries are located very near and are quite large to this day. In 1894, Irenus K. Hamilton purchased Ketcham Post Office and the name was changed to Hamilton Post Office. This location had the post office and a railroad station. What seems to be the remnants of the original buildings' foundations still exist in the trees along with buried track long out of service. |
