| Description: |
Working on the south side of the former Soo Line yard in Neenah. Neenah Foundry Plant 2 serves as a back drop. Neenah Foundry Plant 1 was along Winneconne Avenue about a mile to the north, but is long gone to make room for the Winneconne Avenue overpass and because of Plant 2's production capabilities. |

IC 9562 |
| Description: |
A local which serves Little Chute and Kaukauna, working out of Neenah, is on a bridge spanning the Fox River to switch Expera Specialty Solutions. The mill has an in plant crew with a modern high rail to switch inside the mill, but the local will make the swap of outgoing for incoming cars.The old building to the right is one of the original Thilmany Paper buildings. The original plant, started in 1883, is no longer being used by the company, much of it has been razed. Fortunately, this old building is being saved for it's historic significance to the city and will find a new use. The C&NW bridge the train is on used to connect the C&NW lines on both sides of the river. The line on the south side ran from Appleton to Manitowoc via Kaukauna. The line now ends at the Apvion mill in Combined Locks. All the track on the south side of the river in Kaukauna has been removed. |

GTW 5854 |
| Description: |
After swapping cars at the Expera Specialty Solutions (formerly Thilmany Paper) mill, the CN local to kaukauna from Neenah climbs back uphill from the Fox River to get back to the mainline. Along the way upgrade, the train crosses an old CNW swing bridge across a navigational canal for the Fox River. The canal was out of service and dry for many years, but the locks and navigation system were all re-opened from Green Bay to Lake Winnebago in the fall of 2015. Shortly thereafter, the last lock to Lake Winnebago was closed due to an invasive species of fish being found below the lock. |

IC 9571 |
| Description: |
The 9571 works the Neenah yard from the north end. The Winneconne overpass crosses the tracks here now, but not too long ago, the crossing was at grade. Winneconne Avenue was protected by lights, gates and had a manned elevated tower due to the frequent moves made across the grade crossing. This was the first overpass of three put in to avoid delays in road traffic. |

Crossing over from the former CNW main to the former Soo Line main on the south side of Neenah. The train looks like a typical set for the run to Waupaca Foundry with scrap and coke loads. Perhaps the cars are destined for the local Neenah Foundry just a couple hundred yards from this location. I didn't have time to find out. |

IC 9571 |
| Description: |
Two units work the former CNW line from Appleton Junction to Kaukauna South, which now ends here in Combined Locks at the Appvion paper mill. This facility is the Appleton Coated Papers mill. The mill is switched on two sides by the railroad, which had enough business to warrant a small yard on the opposite side from this location. Most of those tracks are now gone, as it waqs probably used in conjunction with switching the closed NuPage (Kimberly Clark) mill in Kimberly. The modern Wisconsin Central had enough business on this line to actually station a crew down in this river valley. |

| Description: |
A Neenah/Menasha local moves in to couple with two boxcars and remove them from Neenah Paper. The local is working an industrial spur that was once CNW's main line thru the Fox Valley to Green Bay. The middle section of the line thru Neenah was pulled up after the area became a one railroad town. Soo Line spun off Lake States, which was sold to the modern incarnation of Wisconsin Central. Chicago and Northwestern was sold off to become the Fox River Valley Railroad, which also was bought out by the Wisconsin Central. Wisconsin Central, was sold off to Canadian National. |

| Description: |
After servicing Chemtrade, a local working industry on Doty Island in Menasha and Neenah, must negotiate some tight turns on its way back to the former CNW main and yard. The track here runs between a warehouse on the left, right and the former CNW freight house beyond the locomotive. This shot really illustrates the tight curve and undulating track. |

| Description: |
The former Anheuser Busch malting plant in Manitowoc is visible as the 9625 moves in to pick up a cut of cars. The 176 silo facility was closed by Anheuser Busch and sold off. Riverland Ag, of Ceres Global Ag, used the facility for grain storage until this past March when the facility was purchased by Briess Malt and Ingredients. Briess will make Manitowoc a malting facility again. |

| Description: |
The CN Manitowoc crew has come to a small yard near the former Anheuser Busch malting facility to pick up a cut of covered hoppers. Adjacent to the malt plant yard is another small yard that at one time served the S.S. Badger car ferry crossing Lake Michigan. The Badger still steams the lake, but not with railcars. |
