Sideways at Milton Junction

The earth has gone a full rotation around the sun since my last upload, so this almost seems necessary.

WAMX 4181 leads T6 from Madison around the corner at Milton Jct. for what appears to be the last time, as reports have it being assigned to the FOXY. We chased the HJ, (I don't remember all the numbers), down from Waukesha to this location and were waiting for it while these guys came down. The two crews and the dispatchers were changing their minds as to who would go first, finally deciding it would be T6, only to change their mind one more time and allow the Horicon train through first.

This recently placed pile of fresh ties provided a platform for my new favorite type of shot: elevated. A wave from the friendly conductor sealed the deal.
