GTW 4912
Title:  GTW 4912
Description:  Having cut off from it's train, the 4912 runs across Ware Street and down the passing siding to switch Waupaca Foundry Plant 1. The siding actually dips down quite a bit from the main. At it's low point, the siding crosses Oak Street at grade while the main crosses Oak via an overpass.

GTW 4912
Title:  GTW 4912
Description:  The local pulls across Tower Road and into the siding at Waupaca to switch one of the Waupacx Foundry plants. I can't say for certain, but I believe this job is out of Neenah. I often see this unit there and also see gons of scrap heading that way out of the Neenah yard.
