WC 21162, et al.
Title:  WC 21162, et al.
Description:  A busy day at the Seneca Foods Corp. facility in Shawano, WI on 10 Sep. '15. The address on the door is 200 N. Green Bay Ave., Gillett, WI, which seems to imply that the canning plant in Gillett trucks their products about 25 miles to Shawano to be shipped by rail. Gillett was served by C&NW from 1884 to 1981. This facility is currently served by CN via former SOO rails. I am curious to learn what the old foundation in the foreground used to be, but haven’t had any luck so far.

CN 4700
Title:  CN 4700
Description:  CN local slows to halt at Milepost 318 on former SOO rails to conduct a crew change at Shawano, WI on 10 Sep. '15. Herzog Multi-Purpose Machine MPM XIII, powered by HZGX 179, is partially visible behind the local. WC 21022, WC 21137, CNA 404822, and WC 21162 are spotted at the small Seneca Foods Corp. facility (the blue metal building). The address on the door is 200 N. Green Bay Ave., Gillett, WI, which seems to imply that the canning plant in Gillett trucks their products about 25 miles to Shawano to be shipped by rail. Gillett was served by C&NW from 1884 to 1981. I was standing on the former C&NW right-of-way, now the Mountain-Bay State Trail. The tower to protect the junction stood just out of frame to the left, until it was torn down circa 1995, and remnants of the supports for the interlocking mechanisms are visible in the foreground.
