CN local crosses Midway Rd. as it shoves its string of cars northeast over the former MILW rails to service RR Donnelley, originally Banta Corp., in Menasha, WI on 27 Jan. '14. Not a great day to be the train crewman who had to hang on to the last boxcar for the 2-mile shove from the remnants of the wye, the temp. was around -8 and windchill around -20 to -30. |

It was purchased by Menasha Corp. in 1969 and renamed John Strange Paperboard Div. It was sold to U.S. Papers Corp. in 1981. It was sold to Sonoco ca. 2002. I’m not sure who these rails originally belonged to, the MILW, SOO, and C&NW all had access to this small industrial island for many years. |

Description: |
A CN local returns to the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 20 May '18. This view would have been prevented by the dominating silhouette of the original Neenah Foundry facility, later known as Plant 1, which stood here for over ¾’s of a century. Established in 1872 as Aylward Plow Works (a.k.a. Aylward & Sols) at 120 N. Lake St., they erected a new foundry at 500 W. Winneconne Ave. in 1918 “in a rural area of southwestern Neenah.” The name of Neenah Foundry was adopted in 1922. Expanded numerous times over the years, it became Plant 1 in 1960 when Plant 2 was constructed in the then rural area at the intersection of Byrd Ave. and the aptly named Aylward St. (followed by Plant 3 in 1967). Plant 1 was closed in 1994, it stood abandoned for a while and was eventually demolished. |

A CN local approaches Towmen Rd. as it prepares to transition from the former C&NW rails to the former SOO rails (in the foreground) at Shawano Junction, WI on 22 May '18. This spot used to be named Fox River Junction, after several segments of the original C&NW main line through Menasha and Neenah were removed and a turnout was installed here which allows the bypass of missing C&NW rails by using former SOO rails. Train was headed back to Neenah after working Appleton, Little Chute, and Kaukauna. |

A CN local traverses what used to be the west leg of a wye and approaches 6th St. as it heads north via former MILW rails at Menasha, WI on 24 Jun. '18. Local was headed for LSC Communications, Inc. (formerly RR Donnelley, originally Banta Corp.). LSC Communications was spun off from RR Donnelley ca. Nov. '16. WC 16 rests on a siding in the background. It was awesome to see a former MILW caboose on former MILW rails. The tank car and box car, background right, part of the local, rest on what was the south leg of the wye, former joint MILW/SOO rails. Sun Chemical Corp. is partially visible background left. |

The local power rests in front of the depot/yard office at the CN, former C&NW, yard at Appleton Junction, WI on 22 Mar. '19. I was excited to see a pair of Geeps parked here, because it has been a while since they needed two units stationed here. My excitement was short-lived, within a few days there was only one unit stationed here again. The locomotives rest on the yard lead. The north leg of thg wye can be seen on this side of the locomotives. |

Description: |
A CN local prepares to service Menasha Packaging, 1645 Bergstrom Rd., (out-of-frame to left) via former SOO rails at Neenah, WI on 10 Apr. '19. There are two large manufacturing facilities next door to each other here, out-of-frame to left. Both are currently Menasha Packaging facilities, owned by Menasha Corp., whose new corporate headquarters stands just to the south. The southernmost was built by Menasha Corp. in '64 after a devastating fire destroyed most of their historic downtown Menasha facility. The northernmost was built by Bergstrom Paper in the '60s. The overgrown loading dock could be used to load and unload railroad freight cars, but hasn't for many years. I used to play on that loading dock when I was a child. My dad, Louis, once worked for Bergstrom Paper; some of the land near the loading dock was available for gardens for their employees in the '70s. |

Description: |
A CN local passes Arrowhead Park as it takes the north leg of the wye at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 28 Apr. '19. The Main St. overpass can be seen in the background. The white building partially visible at left is, or was, Progressive Paper Storage, Inc. (formerly Kimberly-Clark Warehouse (K-C Warehouse)), 135 Millview Dr. It does not receive rail service, but it looks like there may have been a spur on the northwest side of the building in the past. Arrowhead Park is a closed paper sludge landfill. Before the landfill was opened in the '50s, the south shore of Little Lake Butte des Morts came right up to the north leg of the wye. |

Description: |
A CN local parallels 4th St. and approaches Racine St. while working in the former SOO yard at Menasha, WI on 28 Aug. '19. The facility at right is currently home to Alliance Industries, 320 Appleton St., they apply powder coatings and manufacture sand cores. Founded at Waupaca, WI in 1979, they leased this facility in 2005. They later purchased the facility as well as the adjacent one at 313 Appleton St. The facility was home to Menasha Mill Supply Co. from at least 1939 through the 1970s, they primarily processed waste paper. It clearly used to receive rail service, but it does not seem to currently. The former MILW yard was located on the other (south) side of it; the building could be serviced by both railroads simultaneously. Intertape Polymer Group (IPG), 741 4th St., is partially visible in the background, at the opposite end of the yard. The tan building partially visible to the left is the City Limits tavern or bar and grill, 544 4th St. The building was erected in 1960 for the local chapter of the Polish Falcons of America. Looking east from Racine St. |

A CN local approaches the South Channel (Neenah Channel) of the Fox River as it heads northeast via former joint MILW/SOO rails at Neenah, WI on 5 Sep. '19. The corporate headquarters of Plexus, 1 Plexus Way, Neenah, WI 54956, stands in the background. Plexus stands on the site of the former P. H. Glatfelter Co. paper mill, which stood here for 135 years, the oldest part of the original mill was constructed in 1874. Glatfelter purchased the mill from Bergstrom Paper Co. in 1979. Bergstrom had purchased the mill, originally Winnebago Paper, in 1904. Glatfelter moved the jobs to Ohio in June 2006, the mill stood idle for about two years until it was torn down, demolition was completed in May 2009. Some people like the style of this new building, I do not. Looking southwest from the new Loop-the-Lake bridge (the ribbon cutting ceremony for this and the similar bridge in Menasha was held 23 Jun. '18). The pair of new bridges are part of Neenah and Menasha's Loop-the-Lake project to connect existing recreational trails in the Twin Cities. |
