IC 9562 |
| Description: |
A local which serves Little Chute and Kaukauna, working out of Neenah, is on a bridge spanning the Fox River to switch Expera Specialty Solutions. The mill has an in plant crew with a modern high rail to switch inside the mill, but the local will make the swap of outgoing for incoming cars.The old building to the right is one of the original Thilmany Paper buildings. The original plant, started in 1883, is no longer being used by the company, much of it has been razed. Fortunately, this old building is being saved for it's historic significance to the city and will find a new use. The C&NW bridge the train is on used to connect the C&NW lines on both sides of the river. The line on the south side ran from Appleton to Manitowoc via Kaukauna. The line now ends at the Apvion mill in Combined Locks. All the track on the south side of the river in Kaukauna has been removed. |

GTW 5854 |
| Description: |
After swapping cars at the Expera Specialty Solutions (formerly Thilmany Paper) mill, the CN local to kaukauna from Neenah climbs back uphill from the Fox River to get back to the mainline. Along the way upgrade, the train crosses an old CNW swing bridge across a navigational canal for the Fox River. The canal was out of service and dry for many years, but the locks and navigation system were all re-opened from Green Bay to Lake Winnebago in the fall of 2015. Shortly thereafter, the last lock to Lake Winnebago was closed due to an invasive species of fish being found below the lock. |

IC 9562 and GTW 5854 |
| Description: |
CN local crawls onto the former C&NW bridge over the Fox River as it services Expera Specialty Solutions (out of frame to left) at Kaukauna, WI on 11 Aug. '15. Bridge was built by American Bridge Co. of New York in 1911. The rails used to run past the red flag at the end of the bridge to the C&NW's Kaukauna yard, shops and round house. A line also branched off to go to Manitowoc. From its founding in 1883 until 26 Jun. '13, the Kaukauna paper mill was Thilmany Pulp and Paper Co. (a.k.a. Thilmany, LLC or Thilmany Papers). The rubble behind the snow fence is remnants of the old Thilmany mill, which was mostly demolished in 2013. Part of the original mill was saved and will be restored. |

GTW 5854 |
| Description: |
CN local crosses the former C&NW swing bridge over the Fox River Navigation Canal at Kaukauna, WI on 11 Aug. '15. The Warren pony truss bridge was built in 1893, according to http://bridgehunter.com. I suspect the metal components in the foreground might be for repairs to the bridge. The rehabilitation of the Kaukauna locks is nearly complete and they are scheduled to reopen in a couple of weeks (they haven't been opened since 1984), which means the bridge will need to swing again. The local has just finished servicing Expera Specialty Solutions, originally Thilmany Pulp and Paper Co., and must now ascend a significant grade back up to the main line. |
