The End of the Line... for Now |
Description: |
HLCX 3880 (GP38-2), in charge of AP203, rolls to a stop in the New London, WI runaround. This is a far north as the FOXY crew will go today as the line north to Manawa has no customers. The crew will run around their cars and proceed south so they can switch Amcor Flexibles in New London. This alignment is a one of the few remaining portions of the Green Bay & Westerns New London Subdivision. |

HLCX 3880 and HLCX 1037 |
Description: |
A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses Hwy. MM as it prepares to switch Shawano Specialty Papers (div. of Little Rapids Corp.) via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at West Shawano, Town of Richmond, Shawano Co., WI, on 25 Nov. '22. The area around the mill, which includes some former company houses, used to be referred to as West Shawano. The name still appears on some official property records. The paper mill stands along an approximately 2-mile scrap of the former C&NW mainline which once ran 83 miles from Green Bay to Wausau (this is the only active remnant outside of those two cities). That former main line is now the Mountain-Bay State Trail. It is an awesome bicycle ride, but I (obviously) would prefer to see trains running on it. The fence to the far right surrounds the paper mill's water treatment facility, which was built upon the former site of the Shawano Brick Yard (a.k.a. Larson Brick Yard). The brick yard (owned by Charles Larson, and later his son Thomas, for most, if not all, of its existence) produced fine white or cream-colored brick from 1891 until 1946. The large facility contained three kilns and its own narrow-gauge railway. The paper mill purchased the property at some point after the brick yard closed and eventually demolished the entire facility, to include the Larson mansion. The paper mill's historic office building was constructed in 1901 of brick from that yard. |

HLCX 3880 |
Description: |
A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses Hwy. MMM, formerly Hwy. 29, as it heads southeast via former C&NW rails at the Town of Richmond, Shawano Co., WI, on 26 May '23. These rails were laid by the C&NW in 1884. This is a rare, approximately 2-mile scrap of the former C&NW mainline which once ran 83 miles from Green Bay to Wausau (this is the only active remnant outside of those two cities). The rest of that former main line is now the Mountain-Bay State Trail. It is an awesome bicycle ride, but I (obviously) would prefer to see trains running on it. |
