Album Info:Canadian National locals working in the twin cities of Neenah and Menasha. The track used by the CN here was at one time the domain of three competing railroads, the Milwaukee Road, Chicago and Northwestern as well as the Soo Line. The tracks arrangements and industrial base of the area have changed considerably since becoming a one railroad area.
