Description:
The northwest and northeast walls of the C&NW depot at Eland, WI on 17 Aug. '13. It was built in 1912 after the original depot, built by Milwaukee Lake Shore & Western in 1889, was destroyed by fire. The depot is now owned by the Eland Area Historical Society. The community was originally known as Eland Junction, because it was the junction of C&NW’s Ashland line and Wausau line. It still serves as a junction, but now it is where the Wiouwash State Trail meets the Mountain-Bay State trail. This view is from the Wiouwash State Trail, where it enters town from the north.

C&NW Manitowoc, WI Depot
Description:
The northeast and northwest walls of the old C&NW depot at Manitowoc, WI on 20 Aug. '14. The depot was built by the MLS&W and dates to at least 1883. Some references suggest it could be the original depot built around the time the railroad was incorporated in 1872. C&NW built a new depot about a mile to the west in 1945, but that one no longer exists. A couple of awkward additions were constructed on this one after the railroad stopped using it. It is/was used by Holiday House of Manitowoc County, Inc. They have a newer facility, so I’m not sure if they still use this building or not. The currently CN tracks are on the right.

Title:
C&NW Kaukauna, WI Depot
Description:
The north and west walls of the CN, former C&NW, depot at Kaukauna, WI on 9 Jun. '15. Designed in the Art Moderne style and built in 1947, it originally had a flat roof. The current gabled roof was added at some point after 1983. It became known as the north side depot after 1890, when the Milwaukee Lake Shore & Western, later C&NW, built their large, ornate depot south of the Fox River. That depot disappeared many years ago.

CN 2562 and CN 5778
Description:
CN container train crosses the new CN bascule bridge over the mouth of the Fox River and passes the depot/yard office as it heads south through the former C&NW yard at Oshkosh, WI on 23 Jul. '15. The bridge was completed in Aug. '13 to replace the 1899 C&NW swing bridge. The taller building behind, north, of the depot/yard office sits at the approximate location of the C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, more plain structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north. Historically, everything south of the Fox River was once known as South Oshkosh. The C&NW South Oshkosh depot was saved from demolition, but its current fate is unknown to me. I have seen post-relocation photographs of it on the internet, but they do not reveal its precise location. Some old references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh.

C&NW North Green Bay, WI Roundhouse
Description:
This is what remains of the C&NW roundhouse at the CN yard at North Green Bay, WI, as seen on 29 Sep. '15. C&NW built a new 40-stall roundhouse in 1913-14, along with a power house, store house, oil house, mechanical coal chute, water tank, ice house, and other improvements for $350,000. The roundhouse was reduced to 18 stalls in the late 1950s. The Fox Valley & Western reduced it to 5 stalls in 1998-99. I do not know when the turntable was removed, photographs on this website depict it at least to 2003.

C&NW/CN Oshkosh, WI Yard Office
Description:
The well-maintained yard office at the CN, former C&NW, yard at Oshkosh, WI on 7 Feb. '16. Normally this view of the facility is blocked by the cars in the yard. I've never seen this yard completely empty. This building sits several yards south of the location of C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, plainer structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north. Historically, everything south of the Fox River was once known as South Oshkosh. The C&NW South Oshkosh depot was saved from demolition, but its current fate is unknown to me. I have seen post-relocation photographs of it on the internet, but they do not reveal its precise location. Some references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh. If it still survives, I have not found it yet.

A southbound CN tank car unit train passes the yard office in an unusually empty former C&NW yard at Oshkosh, WI on 10 Feb. '16. Normally this view of the facility is blocked by the cars in the yard. I've never seen this yard completely empty. This building sits several yards south of the location of the C&NW's South Oshkosh depot, a smaller, plainer structure than their once ornate Oshkosh depot which still stands less than a mile to the north.

Some references state it was moved to downtown Oshkosh, others state it was moved to a park in Oshkosh. If it still survives, I have not found it yet. Train had three locomotives, CN 2811 and CN 2873 pulling, as well as CN 2909 pushing. The new bascule bridge over the Fox River is visible background right, it was completed in Aug. '13 to replace the 1899 swing bridge.

GTW 6221 and C&NW Neenah-Menasha, WI Depot
Description:
CN local passes the former C&NW Neenah-Menasha depot as it backs through the remnants of the C&NW Neenah-Menasha yard at Neenah, WI on 5 Jun. '16. The depot was built in 1893 to replace the original ca. 1861 depot. It was restored in 1994 and is currently home to Gries Architectural Group, Inc., and Sturtevant & Associates, LLC, an insurance firm. While quite rusty, the metal C&NW sign still adorns the trackside gable above the arched window. The original C&NW Neenah depot, built ca. 1861, was located near Galloway Co., 601 S Commercial St. The depot was later moved behind the Jersild Knitting Co., 333 N. Commercial St (about 400-500 feet out of frame to the left). It was razed after new depot was completed. The border between the Twin Cities of Neenah and Menasha bisects the yard about 200 feet north of the depot, out of frame to the right.

C&NW Spooner, WI Depot
Description:
The northeast wall of the former C&NW depot at Spooner, WI on 23 Jun. '16. The opposite end of the depot receives the most attention from photographers because that is the end visitors first see when they arrive, so I thought I would post a photograph of this equally interesting end of this historic railroad structure. Constructed in the Craftsman style for the CStPM&O (CMO) in ‘02 by Ashland, WI contractor T. E. Pugh. It measured 288’ long by 32’ wide (52’ wide with the overhangs) and cost $25,000. The northern half had a second story for railroad offices. Passenger service ended in ’61. The northern half of the depot was demolished in ’63. The remaining portion has been home to the Railroad Memories Museum since ’90. The last freight train passed by in ’92.

Description:
The west wall of the former C&NW roundhouse at Spooner, WI on 23 Jun. '16. It was built prior to '09, when a 5-stall addition was constructed. By '17 it had 22 stalls, not sure if that is the greatest number it ever had. Only 8 stalls remain.

Title:
Sheboygan, WI C&NW Freight House
Description:
The west and south walls of the former C&NW freight house at Sheboygan, WI on 3 Oct. '16. The wooden portion of the freight house was built by the MLS&W in 1887 (according to wisconsinhistory.org/). The 1887 Sanborn map depicts it oriented parallel to S. Water St. (now N. Commerce St.) at Pennsylvania Ave. The brick freight office was constructed on the southeast end of the building between 1887 and 1891, according to the Sanborn maps. It was built in 1887 at a cost of $2,182.63, if it is the same freight office described in the Annual Report of the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western Railway Co., 1888. Wisconsinhistory.org/ states that it “was moved to its current location around 1898,” but it wasn’t moved very far. It was simply rotated approximately 30 degrees clockwise to its current orientation at 1134 Pennsylvania Ave., Sheboygan, WI. The northeast corner was cut off at an angle matching the track that ran parallel to S. Water St. (now N. Commerce St.). The brick freight office appears to have been rotated about 60 degrees counterclockwise and instead of being attached to the now south end of the building like it originally was, it was attached to the now east side of the building at the south end. The building was used by C&NW until the early 1960s. The Shoreland 400 Rail Trail, the former C&NW right of way, is visible in the middle of the photograph.

Sheboygan, WI C&NW Freight House
Description:
The east and south walls of the former C&NW freight house at Sheboygan, WI on 3 Oct. '16. The wooden portion of the freight house was built by the MLS&W in 1887 (according to wisconsinhistory.og/). The 1887 Sanborn map depicts it oriented parallel to S. Water St. (now N. Commerce St.) at Pennsylvania Ave. The brick freight office was constructed on the southeast end of the building between 1887 and 1896, according to the Sanborn maps. It was built in 1887 at a cost of $2,182.63, if it is the same freight office described in the Annual Report of the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western Railway Co., 1888. Wisconsinhistory.org/ states that it “was moved to its current location around 1898,” but it wasn’t moved very far.

The building was used by C&NW until the early 1960s. I don't know if the darker brick addition on the right was added by the railroad or a subsequent owner of the building.
