HLCX 1042
Title:  HLCX 1042
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train passes the joint Agropur and Midland Paper facility as it heads northwest via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Town of Grand Chute, Outagamie Co., WI, on 13 Nov. '22. It is neat to find a former C&NW locomotive plying former C&NW rails. This was formerly U.S. Paper Converters, until they closed in 2017, eliminating 52-56 jobs, depending on the reference. It appears the facility has been subdivided. The entrance on the east side, 4808 W. Converters Dr., is occupied by Agropur/WOW Logistics. The entrance on the north side, 4826 W. Converters Dr., is occupied by Midland Paper. I'm not sure which occupant receives rail service; it's possible that they both do. I thought this train was going to stop and spot their boxcar here, but they did not.

Title:  HLCX 1042
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train slowly approaches Hwy. 15, historically Hwy. 45, as it heads southwest via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at West Greenville, WI, on 13 Nov. '22. It is neat to find a former C&NW locomotive plying former C&NW rails. There used to be a depot and siding at this grade crossing. This portion of Hwy. 15 is currently closed, as the work to expand it to four lanes progresses.

Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses Givens Rd. as it heads northwest via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Town of Hortonia, Outagamie Co., WI, on 13 Nov. '22. It is neat to find a former C&NW locomotive plying former C&NW rails. The Pedestrian Crossing sign seems strangely out-of-place. There are no sidewalks, crosswalks, or recreational trails anywhere near here.

It is neat to find a former C&NW locomotive plying former C&NW rails. This new overpass is being erected near the intersection of Givens Rd. and Hwy. 15 in order to carry the pending Hwy. 15 by-pass over the tracks.

Title:  HLCX 1042
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train approaches River Rd. as it heads westerly via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at New London Junction, WI, on 13 Nov. '22. Most of New London Junction is located in Outagamie Co., this portion is in Waupaca Co. It is neat to find a former C&NW locomotive plying former C&NW rails. The rails which bisect the scene are a remnant of the former GB&W main line, also inherited by the FV&LS from the CN at the beginning of the year. Milepost 39 (of the former GB&W main line) can be seen to the right of the locomotive.
