IC 3137
Title:  IC 3137
Description:  Working the remaining paper mill that receives rail service in Menasha, the CN shoves a couple cars to the Sonoco / U.S. Paper mill on the small island formed between the Fox River and the navigation channel. The train is passing in front of the George A. Whiting Paper Company, which was established here in 1882. The mill is still running, but no longer receives rail service.

IC 3137 at U.S Papers / Sonoco
Title:  IC 3137 at U.S Papers / Sonoco
Description:  This mill was once the John Strange Paper Company, organized in 1891. It was originally John Strange Pail and Tub Company, organized in 1881. Pail and Tub started to make paper in 1888. Around 1969, John Strange Paper became a part of the Menasha Corporation and was again sold off in 1981 to U.S. Papers. U.S. Papers then became a part of Sonoco in 2001. My earliest recollections of the mill start about at the time of the switch to U.S. Papers. Since 1981, the mill has shrunk in size and rail traffic has diminished. Hopefully the mill will continue to provide jobs for many more years to come.

CN 9515 and IC 3137
Title:  CN 9515 and IC 3137
Description:  A CN train passes the former Caroline St. grade crossing as it departs the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI, on 5 Nov. '23. The train was heading for Appleton, Little Chute, and Kaukauna. The area between the tracks and Union St., from Main St. to Monroe St., used to be the yard, built by WC in 1882. I don't know when the current, significantly larger yard (extending southwestward from Winneconne Ave.) was built. A 1909 map shows the yard still here, a 1936 map depicts both the old and new yards.
