A daylight repaint

WSOR's trains in and out of Chicago normally traverse Metra territory east of Fox Lake, Illinois, in the overnight hours to avoid conflicts. Power problems the night before with the outbound train from Chicago caused the train to be parked at Rondout and rescue power dispatched from Janesville to get the train home. Freshly repainted WAMX 4181 leads the trains west across Metra territory and back towards home rails in a few miles.

 

The lead unit formerly wore BN green paint and was released from its makeover at the railroad's Horicon paint shop about a week ago.
