PC 4367, FP7A, 1968 |
| Description: |
PC Power. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken in Findlay, Ohio, on 29 December 1968. Shown here (R to L) are Penn Central Railroad engines #4367 and #1712. Both were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #4367 is an FP-7A built for the Pennsylvania Railroad as number "9867" in August of 1952 and renumbered "4367" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. #1712 is an F7A built for the New York Central Railroad in March of 1952. Stop, Look, & Listen! ("LouisFols" A; #1 of 2) |

IC 3129 |
| Description: |
A CN local parallels the Fox River and approaches the S. Memorial Dr. bridge as it descends the grade from the former C&NW yard at Appleton Junction, WI, down into 'The Flats' at Appleton, WI on 18 Jun. '19. Train was headed for Kimberly and Combined Locks. The Appleton Yacht Club and Lutz Park can be seen in the background. The former MILW right-of-way, granting it access to 'The Flats' from Menasha, runs along the opposite bank of the river. The line was abandoned in 1981 and the land has been reclaimed by nature, and the rich snobs who own the homes overlooking the river. About all that remains of this portion of that branch is one of the abutments for the MILW swing bridge that used to cross the river under the S. Memorial Dr. bridge. Over the past several years, I have notice that some misinformed individuals erroneously refer to ‘The Flats’ as ‘Oneida Flats,’ or some other variation. However, the historic, industrial heart of Appleton is simply ‘The Flats.’ |

IC 9568 |
| Description: |
A CN local, with some unique, expedient hand-stenciling on the locomotive cab, crosses Washington St. after servicing Chemtrade (formerly General Chemical Corp.), 388 Ahnaip St., via former C&NW rails on Doty Island at Menasha, WI on 4 Jul. '19. It is difficult to imagine that then Washington Ave. was also Hwy. 41, until that highway was relocated to what was then the rural outskirts of the Fox Cities in the 1940s. U.S. Paper Mills Corp., 69 Washington St., Menasha, WI, an active rail customer, is visible in the background. This mill began production in 1891 as the John Strange Paper Co. 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. |

IC 9568 |
| Description: |
A CN local approaches Milepost 1 and Garfield Ave. as it heads south via the former joint MILW/SOO rails at Menasha, WI on 4 Jul. '19. The former Mondi Akrosil, LLC, facility, 206 Garfield Ave., is partially visible at right. Mondi moved the jobs to Pleasant Prairie, WI, circa '12. Originally Edgewater Paper Co., founded in 1917, which specialized in silicone coated release paper. It was purchased by Akrosil Corp., a holding company, in '69 but didn't change the name to Akrosil until Apr. '74. The Hammermill Paper Co. purchased Akrosil ca. '75, but apparently did not change the name. The facility operated as International Paper-Akrosil after International purchased Hammermill in '86. International sold some of its holdings, including this facility, to Kohlberg & Co., LLC, another holding company, in Jun. '05. Mondi Packaging, based in Vienna, Austria, purchased Akrosil in Jan. '06. There are remnants of a spur on the west side of the facility, but it has not received rail service for a long time. It appears to possibly be used for storage or warehousing. |

IC 9568, CN 4711, CN 4705 |
| Description: |
A pair of CN locals face-off on the yard lead at the north end of the former SOO yard along Union St. at the former Adams St. grade crossing at Neenah, WI on 4 Jul. '19. Near local was waiting to return to the yard from Menasha and had one locomotive, IC 9568. Far local, throwing a little smoke, was preparing to cross over to the passing siding and head toward Appleton, Little Chute, and Kaukauna, and had two locomotives, CN 4711 and CN 4705. The area between the tracks and Union St., from Main St. to Monroe St., used to be the yard. I don't know when the current yard (a few blocks to the south) was built, but a map from 1909 shows the yard here. Adams St. was originally Washington St., until at least 1913. I'm curious to learn what Washington did to piss off the "great" City of Neenah. |

I dont think this was structural. When the current owners built this utility shed, they incorporated one of the coal trestle piers. Kinda cool. |

The poles remain |
| Description: |
I note that a lot of times, once a rail line is abandoned, the track is removed-the rail and ties have obvious resale value-but the lineside poles remain. The wire has some resale value, but the poles, not so much. This one was being reclaimed by living trees along the old Erie. |

There was a diamond here |
| Description: |
Were looking east along the Erie right of way, not that theres much to show for it now. The track in the foreground is a former Nickel Plate branch that is now an important line for NS. Erie crossed on a diamond prior to abandonment. While EL was here, they ran the bulk of the trains, sometimes 40/day, with N&W showing up only a few days per week. Now, EL is gone, NS runs multiple trains per day here, and the line is signalled. |
