IC 3129         
A CN local crosses the Fox River Navigation Canal via the former joint MILW/SOO swing bridge and approaches one of four diamonds which remain on this mostly industrial island (formed when the canal was excavated) at Menasha, WI on 16 Nov. '18. Train was headed back to Neenah from Hilbert. The facility partially visible at left is currently home to Simply Incredible Foods, 198 River St. They purchased the defunct Menasha Municipal Utilities plant in Jun. '14. Looking northeast from a parking lot where a Menasha Wooden Ware Co. warehouse once stood. It was built between 1900 and 1906 according to the Sanborn maps. I do not recall when it was torn down, part of the foundation is still visible.
