| CN local approaches the former S. Pierce Ave./W. 8th St. grade crossing as it heads northeast via former C&NW rails at Appleton, WI on 22 Apr. '17. Train was headed for Little Chute and Kaukauna. The train would have been hidden behind the historic Pierce Manufacturing plant that occupied this city block from 1917 until it was razed in 2011. This plot of land has been divided into lots for Habitat for Humanity and some homes have sprung up to partially obscure the view. |
