Title:  A telltale cloud of steam...
Description:  ...rises from the other end of the workshop at the Wisconsin Auto Museum. 1003 is almost ready to go and has been steamed up several times, but her volunteer crew is working feverishly to work out the post-rebuild mechanical gremlins before taking her for a spin on the main line.

Title:  The birthday girl is all dressed up and no place to go
Description:  Finally uploaded after three days of attempts resulting in a site error. Soo 1003 turned 100 years old as of March 2013. Mechanical gremlins left over from the overhaul prevented it from pulling two scheduled Santa Trains last November, and the locomotive has been silent since.

Switching local industries with SOO 1003?
Title:  Switching local industries with SOO 1003?
Description:  Not exactly, but they disappeared back into the industrial sidings on the west edge of Hartford for about half an hour, presumably to take on coal. The locomotive actually did make a short freight run out of Horicon on the next day, but I didn't get confirmation on it in time to make it up there.
