GTW 4911 |
Description: |
Having passed through Saint Paul Switch and crossed Highway 32, a CN turn is entering Hilbert via Hilbert Junction. Hilbert Junction is where the old Milwaukee Road branched off to get to Menasha and the Fox Cities from its line that went to Ontonagon, Michigan, from Milwaukee. The Soo Line had rights over the Milwaukee from Menasha to Hilbert Junction where it then continued on it's own rails to Manitowoc. These lines are now all owned by the CN. |

GTW 4911 |
Description: |
A Plymouth Sub local rounds the curve from St. Paul switch into Hilbert. St. Paul switch is where trains headed from Neenah/Menasha on the joint Milwaukee-Soo Line right of way were directed to either Manitowoc on the Soo, or onto the Milwaukee Road main that connected Milwaukee to Ontonagon via Green Bay line. |

With the former Milwaukee Road yard tracks to the left, a CN local on the Plymouth Sub heads towards the Milwaukee Road built depot. The boarded up windows on the depot were new and uncovered in 2003. |

CN 4705 |
Description: |
Typically I would not post such a poorly focused image, however I found it a unique sight to find a light engine movement so far out from Menasha. The unit is about 13 miles out of Menasha, approaching County Road B and MP14 on the Manitowoc Sub, heading long hood first for Hilbert Junction. |

CN 4705 |
Description: |
A lone engine crosses the County Road B grade crossing at MP 14 on the Manitowoc Sub. The train is seen through the windshield of a vehicle, which explains the image quality, or lack thereof. The Saint John-Sacred Heart Church steeple can be seen over the trees. |
