GTW 5812
Title:  GTW 5812
Description:  A CN local momentarily fouls Racine St. while working in the former SOO yard at Menasha, WI on 6 Dec. '19. The small white building in the background, at 403 Racine St., was the home of Dave's Burger Shanty for many years (from at least the ‘60s to the early ‘90s). Several short-lived restaurants have occupied it since, most recently Mr. Taco/Mrs. Fajitas and Foxxy Chicken. Since May ’18 it has been the base for some food truck.

GTW 5812
Title:  GTW 5812
Description:  A CN local clears Racine St. while working in the former SOO yard at Menasha, WI on 6 Dec. '19. The facility at right is currently home to Alliance Industries, 320 Appleton St., they apply powder coatings and manufacture sand cores. Founded at Waupaca, WI in 1979, they leased this facility in 2005. They later purchased the facility as well as the adjacent one at 313 Appleton St. The facility was home to Menasha Mill Supply Co. from at least 1939 through the 1970s, they primarily processed waste paper. It clearly used to receive rail service, but it does not seem to currently. The former MILW yard was located on the other (south) side of it; the building could be serviced by both railroads simultaneously. The small white building partially visible at left, at 403 Racine St., was the home of Dave's Burger Shanty for many years (from at least the ‘60s thru the ‘80s). Several short-lived restaurants have occupied it since, most recently Mr. Taco/Mrs. Fajitas and Foxxy Chicken. Since May '18, it has been used as a base for some food truck.
