CN 8886 and CN 2245         
CN mixed freight heads northeast via former C&NW rails at Stroebe in the Town of Menasha, WI on 4 Oct. '15. After a stop at Neenah it was headed toward Green Bay. The train is passing through the construction zone for the new, second bridge to carry Hwy. 10/Hwy. 441, a.k.a. the Tri-County Expressway, over Little Lake Butte des Morts. The original Roland Kampo Bridge, a.k.a. the Polish Connection, which opened to traffic on 30 Nov. 1975, will carry westbound traffic and the new bridge will carry eastbound traffic. The original ramp connecting northbound Hwy. 41 to eastbound Hwy. 10/Hwy. 441, the now bare steel beams above the locomotives, is being dismantled and the approach for the new bridge will occupy its spot. The former SOO rails, connecting Neenah to Shawano, are partially visible at far right.
