Description:  This unit was repainted and renumbered to commemorate Wisconsin and Southern's 30th Anniversary in 2010 (It had previously been painted and numbered for the railroad's 25th Anniversary which took place in 2005). I've only seen it once before in this incarnation, sitting in the yard at Janesville.

Description:  In the background at left is WSOR's Horicon-Milwaukee mainline. In about three miles, the train will hang a left at the power switch in Slinger and re-enter home rails for the final leg to Horicon. For the longest time I thought the hand in the window was the conductor waving at me, but upon closer examination it's actually a novelty prosthetic arm!

Title:  Been a long time coming
Description:  This ex-C&NW line saw its last train in October, 1996, when WSOR took over the ex-C&NW Madison yard from UP. The communities of Fitchburg and Oregon bought the line rather than allow it to be abandoned for just this reason.
