HLCX 1048
Title:  HLCX 1048
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train crosses the Wolf River via the former C&NW swing bridge as it heads northwest at New London, WI, on 6 Aug. '23. Most of New London is in Waupaca Co., but this portion is in Outagamie Co. I didn't notice a builder's plate, but according to bridgehunter.com, the deck plate girder bridge was built in 1892.

HLCX 1048
Title:  HLCX 1048
Description:  A FV&LS (or FOXY) train heads southeast via former CN, historically C&NW, rails at Town of Hortonia, Outagamie Co., WI, on 6 Aug. '23. The train is passing the new overpass which is being erected in order to carry the pending Hwy. 15 by-pass over the tracks. It’s cool that one old telephone pole stands along the right-of-way (to the right of the locomotive).

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.

Waiting For a Crew
Title:  Waiting For a Crew
Description:  HLCX 1048 (GP38-2) sits on the FOXY's Shawano Sub main dividing Appleton, WI and Grand Chute, WI. Photographed from Commercial St., it appears the crew at some point ran out of hours and tied the train down here as the locomotive was off and I saw no sign of a crew anywhere around.
