GTW 6226
Title:  GTW 6226
Description:  A local crosses S. Broadway as it negotiates a wye on it's return to the North Green Bay yard (ex Chicago & Northwestern). The train had been working an industrial area on the northwestern part of town accessed via the former Green Bay and Western line that headed out of Green Bay across the state. That line now ends at the industrial park.
