| A CN local backs along what used to be the south leg of a wye along the former joint MILW/SOO rails at Menasha, WI on 24 Jun. '18. Local has just pulled off of what was the west leg of the wye, after picking up a couple of boxcars from LSC Communications, Inc. (formerly RR Donnelley, originally Banta Corp.). They are preparing to pick up the remainder of their train, which they dropped on the south leg of the wye before heading for LSC Communications. The crude railing in the foreground marks the spot where a spur used to cross Tayco St. to serve what is now the Essity tissue mill. The mill dates to 1915 and was named Wisconsin Tissue Mills for the majority of its existence. It was a family-owned operation until 1977, when it became a corporate trading card. SCA bought it in 2001, they are the fourth corporation to control it in the last 41 years. They re-named their paper division Essity (a feeble combination of ‘essential’ and ‘necessity’) on 14 Jun. '17. |
