GTW 4933 and IC 3115 |
Description: |
A CN train passes the former C&NW depot and approaches S. 14th St. as it heads southwest with 23 3-bay covered hoppers at Manitowoc, WI, on 20 Aug. '23. I previously thought this depot had been built by the MLS&W ca. 1872. Some references state or suggest it could be the original depot built when the railroad was incorporated. However, the Sanborn maps reveal that this masonry depot was built between 1887 and 1894 to replace the earlier framed depot. If it was built prior to 1 Sep. '93, it was built by the MLS&W. If it was built after that date, it was C&NW. A couple of awkward additions were constructed after the railroad stopped using it. It is/was used by Holiday House of Manitowoc County, Inc. They have a newer facility, not sure if they still use this or not. The C&NW built a new depot about a mile to the west in 1945, but that one no longer exists. |

IC 3115, et al. |
Description: |
A CN train crosses S. 14th St. as it heads southwest with 23 3-bay covered hoppers at Manitowoc, WI, on 20 Aug. '23. Who’s the doofus who left their video camera and tripod fouling my shot? Oh wait, that was me. I intended to shoot this train as it ran along Franklin St., but two other camera-equipped railfans beat me to it. I didn’t want to foul their shot, so I shot the depot. |

IC 3115 and QTTX 130503 |
Description: |
IC 3115 sorts cars, including QTTX 130503 (transporting a Nationwide Boiler Incorporated skid-mounted boiler), at the north end of the CN, former SOO, yard at Neenah, WI, on 12 Nov. '23. 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.” The name of Neenah Foundry was adopted in 1922. 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. It stood abandoned for a while and was eventually demolished. |

IC 3115 and WC 15 |
Description: |
IC 3115 shoves WC 15 through the CN, former SOO, yard at Neenah, WI, on 12 Nov. '23. I believe they were assembling the Oshkosh local. Sorry, but I will not willingly utter the phrase "shoving platform" to describe a piece of rolling stock which is obviously a caboose. WC 15 is the former AC 9602, although one reference claims it was AC 9606. |
