Description: |
The 9601 takes on fuel as the 4100 waits its turn."When the CNW worked out of this yard the engine servicing facilities were a bit less"spartan. The facilities were behind the trees and included an engine house. I can't recall a turntable in the early 1980's. The area that held the CNW's eneine facilities, thouxh now gone, is the site of a good busy rail served customer. |

Description: |
A car waits at the 12th Ave. grade crossing as the CN local moves some cars at the former Strid Elevator in Green Bay. The elevator is a long standing landmark at Norwood Yard. Norwood yard was once the center of activity for the Green Bay and Western in it's home town. Norwood was home to the car shops, engine facilities and built trains for the system. Norwood is now a shell of what it ince was and serves only as a small ancillary yard to serve the customers that remain on what is left of the GBW line that went west out of town. The line has become a nice recreational trail. |

Description: |
CN local heads southwest past the south end of Little Lake Butte des Morts via the former joint MILW/SOO rails at Neenah, WI on 28 Jun. '15. This view is from the site of the former P. H. Glatfelter Co. paper mill, which stood here for 135 years. This is a plaza between an office building to the right and clinic to the left. This is the approximate location of the ca. 1871 WC (later SOO) depot which stood on the south (right) side of the tracks at the west end of Wisconsin Ave. It was built on pilings in the south end of Little Lake Butte des Morts, these tracks were originally on a trestle over the water. All of the earth under and to the left (north) of these rails is landfill, deposited in the south end of the lake by the paper mills starting in the 1950s. That former landfill is now Arrowhead Park. The depot was converted to a freight house when a new depot was constructed on Sherry St. in 1891. The depot that stood here was demolished or moved between 1906 and 1913. |

Description: |
The 4100 starts to move into the yard after working at Verso Corporation. The 4100 is a favorite of mine to catch due to its well worn appearance and the paint scheme. It sure does move around. |

CN 4100 |
Description: |
CN local services the immense Verso Corp. paper mill at Wisconsin Rapids, WI on 4 Jul. '17. Incorporated as the Consolidated Water Power Co. on 16 July 1894; it was formed through the merger of 6 industries using the Grand Rapids of the Wisconsin River for water power. Intending to expand into paper making, the name was changed to Consolidated Water Power & Paper Co. in ‘02. The original part of the paper mill and an adjacent 2,000-ft. dam were completed in '04. Paper production commenced on 3 Jun. ’04, on “the world’s first electrically powered paper machines.” Decades of growth and expansion added mills at Biron, Appleton, Stevens Point, and Whiting, in WI, plus Port Arthur, Ontario, and other facilities. The name was changed to Consolidated Papers, Inc., in '62. Nearly 4 more decades of family-owned growth, expansion, and innovations to the paper manufacturing process followed, until it was sold to Stora Enso Oyj, Finland, in Aug. '00. In '07, Stora Enso sold six paper mills to Cerberus Capital Management LP, which created NewPage Holdings, Inc., Miamisburg, OH. Verso Paper Corp., Memphis, TN, acquired paper mills in Wisconsin Rapids, Stevens Point, Duluth, and Escanaba, from NewPage on 7 Jan. ’15. My dad helped design and install some Valmet machinery in this historic facility while it was still Consolidated Papers. I believe these are former MILW rails, but old maps suggest that the GB&W, SOO, and C&NW could have also served this facility. |

GTW 4910 and CN 4100 |
Description: |
GTW 4910 idles away on the edge of the CN, former C&NW and SOO, yard while CN 4100 services the immense Verso Corp. paper mill (historically Consolidated Papers), mostly just out of frame to the left and right, via former GB&W rails at Wisconsin Rapids, WI on 4 Jul. '17. C&NW and SOO had parallel yards here, approximately 4 tracks each ca. 1973. Both roads used to cross the GB&W just out of frame to the right. A junction of the MILW and GB&W was close to where CN 4100 rests. This portion of Wisconsin Rapids, formerly Grand Rapids, was known as West Rapids, shortened to Westrap on some old maps and railroad documents. The over pass is 4th Ave. N./Hwy. 13/Hwy. 34. |
