A Sunrise in Grand Chute
Title:  A Sunrise in Grand Chute
Description:  As the sun rises over nearby Neuroscience Group Field in Grand Chute, WI, HLCX 1048 (GP38-2) dozes on a spur off the FOXYs New London Sub. I can only speculate that the crews shift ended the night before and they tied down here for the night instead of making it back to Appleton Yard.

Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses W. Spencer St. as it shoves a few cars from the former C&NW yard to the former SOO, originally W&N, yard at Appleton, WI, on 12 May '23. The FV&LS inherited both yards from the CN. The facility on the left, 1840 W. Spencer St., is owned by Northern Wis. Warehouses, LLC, which gives the same address as the corporate office of WOW Logistics. Built in 1997 and later expanded, the facility has been sub-divided. Part of it is available for lease, part of it is used by Foremost. It could receive rail service, but hasn't for quite a while. The facility partially visible in the background to the right is Foremost Farms USA, 1815 W. Spencer St. The facility had a spur which was removed ca. Sep. '20, it had not been used for quite a while.

HLCX 1048
Title:  HLCX 1048
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses Municipal Dr./Hwy. 76 as it heads southeast via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Greenville, WI, on 6 Aug. '23. The historic Greenville House, a.k.a. Kronser Hotel & Saloon, stands in the background. Built by Joseph A. Kronser in 1897, it is currently home to Greenville Station (formerly Bootleggers), with a first floor bar and a second floor resale store. Several references erroneously state that the building dates to 1887. The original hotel was erected in that year, but it burned down and the current facility was erected in its place. Some references also claim that the building has been called Greenville Station for over 100 years, but that too is an exaggeration.
