Viewing Album: Northeast WI, Summer 2014
By:
T. P. Bruss
Dates:
6/21/2014 - 9/22/2014
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 2801, CN 8102, CN 2832
Description:
CN through freight approaches the Hwy. G overpass and parallels Hwy. 41 as it heads northeast via former SOO rails at Snells, WI on 8 Jul. '14. Snells is now little more than a map dot in the Town of Neenah, Winnebago Co. A Post Office was established on 4 May 1876, originally called Snell’s Station, sometimes referred to as Snell’s Crossing. This once small, rural community included a cheese factory, sawmill, school, and stockyard. Snells was located at Mile 183 on the SOO’s Trevor to Somerset line and Mile 173.1 on the C&NW’s Milwaukee to Marinette line. It does not look like any substantial remnants of the community remain, even the station sign, erected after the depot was removed, is gone. The former C&NW rails are in the foreground.

GBW 20 Combination RPO/Baggage, ex-GBW 53 or 54 Coach
Description:
GBW 20 combination RPO/baggage, ex GBW 53 or 54 Coach, in front of the former C&NW Marion depot at the Marion Area Historical Society at Marion, WI on 9 Jul. '14. There were no obvious markings other than faint stencils on the trucks that included, "LUB PAD, NOR 6-6-66, GBW". It used to be displayed at Rapid River, MI; it was moved from there to Marion, WI on 2 Jul. ’13. According to http://greenbayroute.com/, GBW 20 was originally GBW 53 or 54, a 60'-0" coach built by Hicks Locomotive and Car Works in 1908; rebuilt as an RPO/baggage car in 1929-30. Sister GBW 21, ex-GBW 52, is on display at National Railroad Museum at Ashwaubenon, WI. GB&W donated sister GBW 22, ex-GBW 51, to the Wisconsin Historical Society in 1970 for display at Stonefield Village in Cassville, WI. I'm not sure if it is still there, it is not mentioned with the other RR equipment on their website.

Description:
Close-up of a truck on SOO 99116 caboose at the Marion Area Historical Society at Marion, WI on 9 Jul. '14. I usually don’t find trucks all that fascinating, this one piqued my interest when I noticed it says “Soo Line” on the side. This caboose was on display near the south end of the former SOO yard in Neenah, WI for several years, it had a different SOO paint scheme then.

SOO Octagonal Concrete Crossing Shanty

A nicely restored SOO octagonal concrete crossing shanty at the Marion Area Historical Society at Marion, WI on 9 Jul. '14. A similar structure was displayed next to SOO 99116 caboose when it was located near the south end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI. Would it be safe to presume that this crossing shanty came from Neenah too?

GTW 4926 and GTW 5944
Description:
CN local backs past the depot into the former C&NW yard at Appleton Junction, WI on 10 Jul. '14. It was an unusually long train from Neenah; they dropped off 56 cars before eventually continuing on to Little Chute and Kaukauna with 11 more cars. A few blocks away to the southeast, the CN local returning from Kimberly and Combined Locks was halted at S. Mason St., waiting until it could return to the yard.

ELS 1200 is trying to hide amongst the overgrowth while parked on the former MILW rails at Stiles Junction, WI on 13 Jul. '14. I wonder if it might be spotted here due to increased rail traffic since the Grain Ventures, LLC facility in Oconto Falls has been expanded.

WSOR MoW equipment, a Harsco Model ECTR130J Tamper, crosses N. Milwaukee St., at the intersection with W. Main St. (and formerly E. Main St.), and Hwy. C, as it heads southeast via former MILW rails at Plymouth, WI on 15 Jul. '14. A pair of functioning wig-wag signals are on the right. I wish I could have composed a better shot, but I was approaching the intersection as the signals were activated.

There was a red flag clamped to one rail and a red derail on the other rail, behind the train at South St. There was another red flag clamped to a rail in front of the locomotive as well. That seemed unusual.

ACFX 68975, et al.
Description:
A string of covered hoppers spotted on a spur along WSOR, former C&NW, rails southeast of Reed St., in Plymouth, WI on 15 Jul. '14. A tanker truck is parked alongside the spur either loading or unloading one of the cars. This spur, a remnant of the former C&NW mainline, was re-installed quite recently; it does not appear on current satellite maps. These new rails end at E. Clifford St., the next would-be grade crossing, but they will once again carry trains to Kohler, WI in the near future, if I’m not mistaken. I had to include the electrical box on the right because it still has CNW stenciled on it. The former MILW rails in use by WSOR are hidden on the right; you can see some of the old telephone poles that parallel the rails.

Description:
The southeast and northeast walls of the WSOR, former MILW, depot at Plymouth, WI on 15 Jul. '14. It was built in 1912, as was the C&NW depot out of frame to the right. Before then there was a union depot that served both roads. A string of covered hoppers is spotted on the spur, originally a siding, behind the depot. The building on the left is the remnants of the J. H. Timm and Co. feed mill, built in 1917. Some new ballast has been dumped recently.

Title:
DMIR C-176 and LSI 19
Description:
LSI 19 caboose, originally DMIR C-176, stored behind Ace Supply and Rental in Plymouth, WI on 15 Jul. '14. It was on display at Reeve Park, adjacent to the C&NW depot, in Waunakee, WI for many years. On 16 Sep. ’08 it was moved to Plymouth. At that time the plan was to restore it back to original DM&IR paint scheme and road number, it was hoped the project would be completed in 2 or 3 years. It doesn’t look like they have made any progress yet. More information and photographs can be found at: http://www.fuzzyworld3.com/3um/viewtopic.php?t=2518. An old ore car is partially visible to the left of the caboose.

Title:
Unique Grade Crossing at Plymouth, WI
Description:
An interesting and unusual light at the WSOR, former MILW, grade crossing at N. Milwaukee St. in Plymouth, WI on 15 Jul. '14. It appears to be some variant of an Eaglelux Traffic Beacon and Flasher, manufactured by the Eagle Signal Corporation. There used to be a stop sign attached to the mast. The large round light on the top is, or was, a red flasher. The fluted housing below that holds two incandescent light bulbs that would illuminate the stop sign. Some references speculate this may have been the original warning signal for this grade crossing. A more contemporary Griswold crossing signal is in front of and to the right of this light (out of frame). A pair of wig-wag signals can be seen in the background, still in service. Some remnants of the C&NW rails are visible on the other side of the still active rails. Some earlier photos of the light, and some interesting information about the signals at this grade crossing, can be found at: http://www.rxrsignals.net/Wisconsin/L-P/Plymouth/Main/.
