Wisconsin Central Shops Yard 1999

This is what the Wisconsin Central diesel area at Shops Yard in North Fond du Lac looked like on a summer afternoon back in the year 1999.

 

And I am sure that many (like me) still lament the fact that all of that WC Maroon & Gold has since been replaced by the Red, White, and Black of the Canadian National.

 

But it’s also true that on this afternoon in 1999, there were many who missed the days when all of those whisker tracks around the turntable were filled with the Light Gray and Red EMD F-units and other classic power of the Soo Line. ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
