Album Info:Most of the photographs in this album were captured in Northeast Wisconsin in the summer of 2014, so they are mostly CN operating on former C&NW, GB&W, MILW, and SOO rails. Once in a while I try to catch ELS and WSOR on former MILW rails too. A handful of photos are from Illinois and Iowa too.

CN 5641 and CN 2136
Title:  CN 5641 and CN 2136
Description:  CN through freight emerges from behind the historic Tuttle Press Co. factory and approaches N. Lawe St. as it heads northeast via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 1 Jul. ’14. Train was headed from Stevens Point to Green Bay and had two locomotives, CN 5641 pulling and CN 2136 pushing. The factory dates to 1905, it later operated as Artfaire and finally as Sulpaco West, Inc. For nearly a century this facility produced a variety of renowned specialty papers: napkins, table covers, tissue, craft paper, paper dolls, gift boxes, crepe paper, and especially gift wrapping paper, until Sullivan Paper Co. shuttered this plant on 27 Jun. ’02 and moved production to one of its other facilities in Mass. Since then it appears to have been used as storage for one or more local businesses. The spur used to serve Tuttle Press, Luvata (formerly Valley Cast), and Appvion (originally Appleton Papers), only the latter is a current rail customer.

CN 9673
Title:  CN 9673
Description:  CN local pauses on former C&NW rails in Town of Menasha and fouls W. Prospect Ave./Hwy. BB as it drops its string of cars at the southwest end of the yard at Appleton Junction, WI on 2 Jul. ‘14. Train had finished working Kimberly, Combined Locks, and eastern Appleton and had one locomotive, CN 9673 (GP40-2LW). I captured this closeup because I was curious about the remnants of the stenciled "Newberry" faintly visible on the access panel underneath the cab window.

Title:  CN 2159, BCOL 4625, CN 5431, CN 8862
Description:  CN through freight has halted adjacent to Harrison St., split its train, and is now shoving 13 cars into the south end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 4 Jul. ’14. I presume they were going to drop off one or more of those cars before recoupling to the remainder of their train, which included a string of over 60 loaded Herzog ballast cars, and continuing on their way. I was not able to stay long enough to find out for sure.
