Title:  CN 2718 and CN 5335
Description:  A CN local approaches Main St. as it pulls 20 cars northwest via former C&NW rails at Hermansville, MI on 3 Nov. '18. The lead locomotive is passing the approximate location of the former junction with the SOO. The former SOO right-of-way running northeast from here is now a recreational trail, but the rails running southwest are still in use by the CN toward Pembine, WI.

CN 2718, et al.
Title:  CN 2718, et al.
Description:  A CN local crosses Main St. as it pulls 20 cars northwest via former C&NW rails at Hermansville, MI on 3 Nov. '18. Train had two locomotives, CN 2718 and CN 5335. The interesting, old, brick building at left was the Hiawatha Fur Farm's (Hiawatha Silver Fox Farm's) pelting station or fur house. It was likely built in 1931, because the company's earlier facility was destroyed by fire in Feb. of that year. The facility pelted furs for at least seven farms owned by or associated with the Nieman family in Wis. and Upper Mich. (in the 1940s at least). The pelts were shipped by rail to fur auctions in New York.

CN 2718
Title:  CN 2718
Description:  A CN local disappears from public view as it pulls 20 cars into the vast rail network within the immense, collocated Verso Paper and Specialty Minerals complex at Quinnesec, MI on 3 Nov. '18. Champion International Corp. commenced construction of a pulp mill here in 1981. Pulp production began 1985, paper production followed in 1990. The facility is served via former C&NW rails. It was purchased by International Paper ca. 2000. They sold their coated paper mills to Apollo Global Management, LLC, in 2006, naming the new entity Verso Corp., Verso Paper, or Verso Paper Corp. (depending on which reference you choose to believe). It is difficult to see, due to the less-than-desirable location of the sun, but the locomotives can be seen beyond the tree line as they head south into the sizeable yard on the property.

Title:  CN 2246, IC 2718, CN 8002, BCOL 4652, et al.
Description:  A CN through freight rests along Union St. at the former Sherry St. grade crossing at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 10 Apr. '20. Train had five locomotives, CN 2246, IC 2718, CN 8002, BCOL 4652, CN 5261. 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.
