SOO 736, GTW 5856, and IC 9602
Title:  SOO 736, GTW 5856, and IC 9602
Description:  CN local passes SOO 736 as the former hauls 23 cars through Telulah Park via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 11 Mar. ’14. Local was headed back to the former C&NW yard at Appleton Junction after servicing industries in Combined Locks, Kimberly, and Appleton. SOO 736 was donated to the City by John Mason Balliet. He also paid for construction of a temporary spur off the main line to get the locomotive into the park, as well as a fence erected later to deter vandals. The locomotive arrived on 14 Nov. '59. When asked why he did it, he said, "so that children would know what [a steam engine] looked like." He owned an insurance agency, but railroads were a hobby. He served as a director for Missouri Pacific, Michigan Central, Lake Erie & Eastern, and Pittsburgh & Lake Erie railroads.
