A pair of CN locals meet along Union St. at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 9 May '20. The historic Neenah Cheese & Cold Storage Co. facility, 434 Sherry St., is partially visible beyond the trains. It was built in 1902 after the original 1892 building was destroyed by fire and is currently used for storage. The Main St. overpass is in the background to the left. 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, significantly larger yard (extending southwestward from Winneconne Ave.) was built, but a map from 1909 shows the yard still here.
