Re-installed Grade Crossing at New London, WI |
| Description: |
CN recently re-installed the grade crossing on a remnant of the former GB&W mainline in order to resume rail service to Granite Valley Forest Products (formerly Wolf River Lumber) at New London, WI, as seen on 29 Nov. '17. Wolf River Lumber eliminated rail service ca. '09 and the grade crossing was removed. I'm not sure if rail service has resumed yet or not. Wolf River Lumber ran into some financial and legal trouble and was acquired by GreenStone Farm Credit Services in '10. GreenStone wanted to keep it running until they found a buyer. Welter Forest Products, Inc. (DBA Granite Valley Forest Products) bought it in late '12 or early '13. |

CN 4721 |
| Description: |
CN local works in the former SOO yard at Menasha, WI on 4 Dec. '17. The facility at right is currently home to Alliance Industries, 320 Appleton St., Menasha, WI, they apply powder coatings and manufacture sand cores. Founded at Waupaca, WI in 1979, they leased this facility in 2005. They later purchased the facility as well as the adjacent one at 313 Appleton St. The facility was home to Menasha Mill Supply Co. from at least 1939 through the 1970s, they primarily processed waste paper. It clearly used to receive rail service, but it does not seem to currently. The former MILW yard was located on the other (south) side of it; the building could be serviced by both railroads simultaneously. |

CN 4721, et al. |
| Description: |
A CN local parallels W. Butte des Morts Beach Rd. as it heads northeast with about 23 cars via former C&NW rails at Stroebe, WI on 10 Dec. '17. Stroebe is a railroad station in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI until 14 Apr. '16 (not Outagamie Co., where Stroebe was erroneously placed on this site)). Train was headed for Appleton, Little Chute, and Kaukauna and had two locomotives, CN 4721 and CN 9473. The ongoing reconstruction of the Hwy. 41/ Hwy. 10/Hwy. 441 (a.k.a. the Tri-County Expressway) interchange (a.k.a. the Polish Connection) is visible in the background. The interchange opened to traffic on 30 Nov. '75. When Hwy. 10 was reconstructed and relocated ca. '97, this interchange was not simultaneously reconstructed to form a full interchange, but the ongoing, extensive expansion and reconstruction will make it a full interchange as well as increase traffic capacity. |

| Description: |
CN local passes Intertape Polymer Group, IPG, 741 4th St., Menasha, WI, and crosses the former Manitowoc St. grade crossing via the former joint MILW/SOO rails at Menasha, WI on 10 Dec. '17. Founded in Menasha in Dec. 1917 as George Banta Paper Co., an affiliate of the George Banta Publishing Co. They merged with Menasha’s Gebrick Paper Co. in ’19 and continued under the Banta name. The name was changed to Central Paper Products Co. (later shortened to Central Paper Co.) ca. Sep. ’20, about the same time they moved to their new location at 422 Manitowoc St. on the north side of the joint MILW/SOO tracks. It’s the same facility, but the address changed when a portion of Manitowoc St. was vacated to allow westward expansion ca. ’76-’80. The facility was acquired by Alco Standard Corp., based in Valley Forge, PA, ca. 29 Sep. ’69 but continued to operate as Central Paper. The name changed to Central Products Co. at some point after ’74. Spinnaker Industries, Inc. purchased Central Products Co. from Alco ca. 1 Jul. ‘95. Intertape Polymer Group, Inc., from Canada, purchased Central Products from Spinnaker ca. 12 Apr. ’99. Train was returning from the Hilbert-area and will complete some work in Menasha before heading back to the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI. |

CN local shoves 4 boxcars past the idle Earl Litho Printing Co. facility, 1486 Earl St., and across Midway Rd. via former MILW rails at Menasha, WI on 10 Dec. '17. I'm not sure when the facility closed. When I saw its current condition, I feared that it was being razed. I was surprised to learn that someone wants to remodel it for continued industrial use. I hope they succeed. The boxcars were destined for LSC Communications, Inc. (formerly RR Donnelley, originally Banta Corp.), out of frame to the right. |

Into the Ozarks |
| Description: |
This eastbound has left West Plains and is now about to tackle the Ozarks between here and Hoxie, where it will get some easy running the rest of the way into Memphis. The two GEs should be up to the task of rolling the 73 freight and 10 stacks over the hump. |

Bucolic paradise |
| Description: |
One of the prettier places is off the shoulder of MO 59 near Granby, where the ex Frisco rolls past this rustic looking barn. The problem is, the highway is four lane divided, and you cant really just perch here and wait, which can sometimes be a while. I got lucky this day to catch a train as I reached this spot. A pair of Frisco SD 45s, or quartet of Fs would have really made the shot, but Im about 40 years too late. Ill take BN green, though on this 81 car eastbound. |
