CN local parallels River St. and the Fox River Navigation canal after servicing U.S. Paper Mills Corp., 69 Washington St., at Menasha, WI on 8 Nov. '17. This mill began production in 1891 as the John Strange Paper Co. It was purchased by Menasha Corp. in 1969 and renamed John Strange Paperboard Div. It was sold to U.S. Papers Corp. in 1981. It was sold to Sonoco ca. 2002. I’m not sure who these rails originally belonged to, the MILW, SOO, and C&NW all had access to this small industrial island for many years. |
