A local which serves Little Chute and Kaukauna, working out of Neenah, is on a bridge spanning the Fox River to switch Expera Specialty Solutions. The mill has an in plant crew with a modern high rail to switch inside the mill, but the local will make the swap of outgoing for incoming cars.The old building to the right is one of the original Thilmany Paper buildings. The original plant, started in 1883, is no longer being used by the company, much of it has been razed. Fortunately, this old building is being saved for it's historic significance to the city and will find a new use. The C&NW bridge the train is on used to connect the C&NW lines on both sides of the river. The line on the south side ran from Appleton to Manitowoc via Kaukauna. The line now ends at the Apvion mill in Combined Locks. All the track on the south side of the river in Kaukauna has been removed. |
