| CN local approaches S. Pierce Ave. as it heads northeast via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 23 Jun. '15. Train was headed for Little Chute and Kaukauna and had two locomotives, CN 4705 and IC 3137. The grass in the foreground is the site of the historic Pierce Manufacturing plant that occupied this city block from 1917 until it was razed in 2011. This rare, broad view of the tracks in Appleton won’t last much longer. Construction of new homes will begin this fall. |
