CNW Crossing of Duck Creek
Title:  CNW Crossing of Duck Creek
Description:  If one wanders around in the Howard Dog Park, they may find themselves looking at the old CNW line north out of Green Bay. Looking generally north along the tracks, the old swing bridge is visible across Duck Creek. Just past the creek is Riverview Drive. A little further down, at the grade crossing with the cantilevered signals, is Lakeview Drive. Just beyond Lakeview, the track curves to the right, heading closer to true north, running to Michigan's Upper Peninsula, via Marinette. Years ago, there was also a line that diverged to the left, approximately where the tan and green sign can be seen under the cantilevered signal head. This line ran to Marshfield via Shawano and Wausau. It is now the Mountain Bay State Bike Trail.

GTW 4928
Title:  GTW 4928
Description:  A local returns to North Green Bay, after working north of town. The train had come part way across the grade crossing, and then reversed to clear it for a few minutes, before again coming across. This time, it will bring the entire train across and into the yard. The pick up truck won't have a long wait.

Some People Just Can't Wait
Title:  Some People Just Can't Wait
Description:  As a local returns to North Green Bay yard from working north of town, an impatient motorist makes a "U" turn to find another route rather than this one on N. Military Avenue. It only took a couple minutes for the train to clear. Knowing the area, the motorists detour most likely took longer. Then again, he may have a lead foot and no concern speed limits.

GACX 15546
Title:  GACX 15546
Description:  In 2016, the WSOR used some state funds to help offset the costs of some bridge repair along its lines. The old concrete span across the mill pond in Ripon gets some much needed attention, as a train rolls across. Look closely and signs of work can be seen. A back hoe operator can be seen down by the water.
