GTW 4914
Title:  GTW 4914
Description:  A CN local approaches Hwy. O as it heads south via former SOO rails at Mackville Station, Town of Center, Outagamie Co., WI on 22 May ’14. Listed as Mackville Station on some old maps, distinguishing it from the community of Mackville which is 1-mile due east of here, it is listed as Mackville on some time tables. Some remnants of the depot’s foundation can be seen to the right of the base of the station sign. The station sign was stolen between 13 Jun. and 9 Jul. ’14, not long after I posted a photograph of it on this site. I presume it was stolen; I would think if the railroad had removed the sign they would have removed the posts as well. Both posts stood barren for quite a while. One of the posts still stands next to the track (as of Oct. ‘18), the other lies on the ground. Remnants of the former passing siding can be seen at right, it has been truncated at Hwy. O. What remains forms a spur which could be used to service Stainless Tubular Products (STP), partially visible to the right. It doesn’t appear to receive regular rail service at the moment. I do not know the history of the cool, old barn-like structure in the background, but it has a loading dock extending to the spur. Train was headed back to Neenah after working Shawano.

Description:  GTW 4914 heading north out of the former Soo Line yard in Neenah with cars for the local industries. The train is across what was once the Sherry Street grade crossing, which was taken out of service with the building of overpasses at Main Street, Winneconne Ave. and Cecil Streets.
