L863 power heads to the tie-up track while another power set idles
Title:  L863 power heads to the tie-up track while another power set idles
Description:  The L863 off the Reedsburg Sub snuck up on me, so only managed handheld video as it crossed Commercial Avenue. 4173 was the WSOR 4004. Behind 3928 is 4185 (formerly WSOR 4051), which has a bit of a smoking problem.

Close, but no cigar
Title:  Close, but no cigar
Description:  I planned on catching Saturday's L463 after seeing Friday's L863 come in with the recently repainted 3947 trailing facing north, expecting they would turn back north with the same power set the next day. Well, I was half right. There was L463's crew going to work with the 4173, but the 3947 had been taken off overnight leaving the former WSOR 4004 to head to Reedsburg long-hood-forward.

Title:  Y303 crew eases the T004 train toward the yard
Description:  They'll hang a right (left from our perspective) at the spring switch just ahead onto home rails. Straight ahead of the train is UP trackage, which apparently hasn't been used since the last snowfall.

Quartet Crossing Court Street
Title:  Quartet Crossing Court Street
Description:  Note the white-topped Associated Signal Company electronic bell on the crossing signal across the street. These began to pop up in the last days of the C&NW, and a few still exist. They sound similar to early General Signal Co. e-bells.
