Niagra, Wisconsin is served by a former Chicago & Northwestern (now CN) branch line which begins near Quinessec, MI and crosses the Menominee River near Little Quinessec Falls.  The photo above shows an Alco RS-36 (C&NW 4259) heading down the grade into Niagra with two box cars and a caboose.  The grade from Quinessec, which can be bettr seen in photo below, is significant.  Niagra has a Kimberly-Clark plant and receives regular rail traffic.  Top photo was taken November, 1984 by [Neil Plagens].  Photo below in 2003 photo by [Dale Berry]
