WC 1563 and IC 1201 |
Description: |
WC 1563 and IC 1201 work the CN, former SOO, yard in Neenah, WI on 26 Sep. 13. This view would have been prevented by the dominating silhouette of the original Neenah Foundry facility, later known as Plant 1, which stood here for over ¾’s of a century. Established in 1872 as Aylward Plow Works (a.k.a. Aylward & Sons) at 120 N. Lake St., they erected a new foundry at 500 W. Winneconne Ave. in 1918 “in a rural area of southwestern Neenah.” Expanded numerous times over the years, it became Plant 1 in 1960 when Plant 2 was constructed in the then rural area at the intersection of Byrd Ave. and the aptly named Aylward St. (followed by Plant 3 in 1967). Plant 1 was closed in 1994, the corporate overlords didn’t want to spend money to update the plant. It stood abandoned for a while and was eventually demolished. |

WC 1563 and WC 16 |
Description: |
A Wisconsin Central throwback in 2013 as WC SW1500 1563 rests next to the WC 16 caboose at Neenah Yard. The caboose still hangs out in Neenah as of 2021, but WC 1563 was repainted in the standard CN paint scheme and was donated to the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay in Fall 2019. |

The paint was quickly fading from WC 1563, which was still in WC livery in 2013. This has since been repainted in the standard CN livery and donated to the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay. |

Description: |
There are no pictures of the locomotive between 2015, when it was still in the old scheme, and 2021, when it had come over to the museum. I am thinking Canadian National may have repainted it specifically for the occasion of its donation. It was really looking faded before, so the new paint scheme looks very nice! |

WC 1564 and IC 1492 |
Description: |
A pair of CN switchers work the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 18 Aug. '13. This view would have been prevented by the dominating silhouette of the original Neenah Foundry facility, later known as Plant 1, which stood here for over ¾’s of a century. Established in 1872 as Aylward Plow Works (a.k.a. Aylward & Sons) at 120 N. Lake St., they erected a new foundry at 500 W. Winneconne Ave. in 1918 “in a rural area of southwestern Neenah.” Expanded numerous times over the years, it became Plant 1 in 1960 when Plant 2 was constructed in the then rural area at the intersection of Byrd Ave. and the aptly named Aylward St. (followed by Plant 3 in 1967). Plant 1 was closed in 1994, the corporate overlords didn’t want to spend money to update the plant. It stood abandoned for a while and was eventually demolished. |
