IC 3138 and GTW 4620         
CN local halted at Millview Dr. as it waits to enter the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 1 Feb. '14. Train was likely returning from Manitowoc. Until a few years ago, a train stopped here would have been hidden behind the Glatfelter Paper mill (formerly Bergstrom Paper, originally Winnebago Paper), which stood for well over a century (the oldest part of the original mill was constructed in 1874). The lead locomotive is parked under the remnants of the steam pipes that used to connect the paper mill to the now defunct Fox Valley Energy Center (formerly Minergy Fox Valley Glass Aggregate Plant).

Richard Hopfensperger General I guess to look for the silver lining about a mill closing and being destroyed, at least now there is good access to see the trains. I'd rather have the mill back and running though. 2/10/2014 7:35:08 AM
