CN local approaches the former S. Oakland Ave. grade crossing as it hauls 9 cars southeast through the former GB&W Norwood yard at Green Bay, WI on 28 Mar. '15. Train was headed back the former C&NW yard at North Green Bay. Fox River Grain Elevator looms in the background. Fox River Grain Elevator is part of Fox River Valley Ethanol, near Oshkosh, WI. They were formerly GB Elevator and Utica Energy, respectively, until they were purchased and renamed by Ace Ethanol, based in Stanley, WI, in 2013. The elevator was once adorned with a pair of large GB&W logos. Other former names for this elevator include Didion Elevator (partially visible in blue letters at the top) and Strid Elevator.
