| A CN container train parallels Union St. and passes a halted through freight as it heads south at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 4 Apr. '20. Train had two locomotives, CN 3222 pulling and CN 2914 pushing. Consist included. The Main St. overpass is in the background to the left. 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. The pair of telephone poles toward the right stand at the former Adams St. grade crossing. |
