CN 4715 |
| Description: |
The 4715 has moved past the east side of the former Milwaukee Road depot on what used to be the main line from Milwaukee to Green Bay, and beyond. This track is now part of the small yard facility in Hilbert for sorting cars. Just beyond this string of hoppers is the junction with the Manitowoc Subdivision (formerly Soo Line) which is very close to a 90 degree diamond. This depot had it's windows replaced with more modern fixtures about 2003 or 2004. Sometime since then, they have been boarded up. |

CN 4715 |
| Description: |
The CN 4715 heads into the storage track to pick up another cut of covered hoppers in Hilbert. The unit's train is set on a connecting track from the Manitowoc Subdivision to the Plymouth Subdivision (both former Wisconsin Central designations). The train came from Neenah via the Manitowoc sub and connected with the Plymouth sub thru St. Paul switch. St. Paul switch is the point at which trackage rights Soo trains left Milwaukee Road rails between Menasha and Hilbert and went on eastward to Manitowoc. |

Once a common sight to those of us who live along the former Soo Line R.o.W. before they purchased the Milwaukee Road lines through Wisconsin, spotting an old "shock of wheat" hopper is like seeing an old friend. This car is spotted at Country Visions/Country Horizons Co-op at Rockwood. The Co-op is the last customer north of Manitowoc heading north on CNW's Shore;line Subdivision. From Rockwood the R.o.W. is a recreation trail to Denamark, I believe. |

There has been some work renovating and improving the facility since Briess took over in 2014. These flats brought loads of plate steel which a construction company was using in it's work at the facility. The yard tracks on the right used to extend beyond the red flags visible at the end of the rails, and serve the SS Badger before rail service on the ferry ended. |

IC 3137 |
| Description: |
After negotiating the tight curves through a residential area, the CN local working the Plymouth Sub pulls some cars from the Briess Malt and Ingredients facility in Chilton. The original parts of this malt house were built in 1901 as the Chilton Malting Co. The Briess web site has some very interesting reading about the company and it's history. |

IC 3137 |
| Description: |
The Plymouth Sub local crosses County Highway BB (Calumet County) at Saint John on it's return to Neenah. The track through Saint John was originally laid by the Milwaukee and Northern from Hilbert to Neenah/Menasha.

After switching down in the small yard along Lake Michigan, a local job returns to the former CNW yard in Manitowoc. The crew must approach the grade crossing at S. 10th Street cautiously, as most people choose to ignore the warning signals, even pedestrians. |
