AP203
Description:
FOXY train AP203, the local to New London, WI, rolls through the heart of the Village of Greenville, WI and across HWY 76. Surrounded on both sides United Corporative, the spur to the right occasionally receives shipments of fertilizer. United Cooperative is a common shipper along Watco (the parent company of the Foxy) lines in Wisconsin and it will be interesting to see if they develop traffic here in Greenville. Today HLCX 3880 and HLCX 1037, both GP38-2s, have the honor of creaking along the stick rail of the New London Sub.
