| A CN local approaches the former C&NW swing bridge over the Fox River Navigation Canal in 'The Flats' at Appleton, WI on 6 Oct. '18. I haven't noticed a builder's plate, but according to bridgehunter.com, the Warren through truss swing bridge was built in 1908. Train was headed for Kimberly and Combined Locks. Over the past several years, I have noticed that some misinformed individuals erroneously refer to ‘The Flats’ as ‘Oneida Flats,’ or some variation of same. However, the historic, industrial heart of Appleton is simply ‘The Flats.’ |
