For the first time we traveled to Madison, Wisconsin to see the State Capital. I took this photograph from a distance and noticed through the image how big this architecture was. Many gathered on the streets singing religious music while others walked by with masks or drove by. Madison was an interesting place to visit for one day.
With January conditions in early November, Wisconsin & Southern's train T4H cuts through the ten degree temperatures just west of Iron Ridge with their Janesville bound freight, in the early rays of the day.

UP LBU52 completes its pickup at National Warehouse and is about to start its return trip to Butler. The Wisconsin Cold Storage building in the background was built in 1892 with an addition being built in 1928.
here in wisconsin, spring comes late (read: may). it's an in-between time, where hope is in the air, yet nothing grows from the ground. so i continue to take photographs of what my husband calls "dead brown things." because there's beauty in the dormancy, especially at sunset.
Westbound Wisconsin & Southern freight T4H rolls towards Janesville, as today's power brightens up the brown season west of North Prairie with some help from the low late season sun.

With well over three decades of wisdom behind the throttle, number one on the roster and longtime teacher of railroading in Wisconsin Steve Groth grabs a few notches as he leaves Oshkosh behind and sets a course for Horicon, just as the sun sinks into the blue hour over the Wisconsin countryside.
A quartet of Wisconsin Central SD45's (6513, 6510, 6503, 6512) lead a trio of Southern Pacific SD70m's and a pair of SD40M-2's on an Eastbound loaded coal train. They are heading through Pando, located on Tennessee Pass on January 4th, 1995.
This shot was taken last winter. I was just thinking to myself, "Man, can you imagine the amount of snow they must have this year?!" Now, that would be a shot! But here, too, I'm not about to travel that far in these blizzard-like conditions. I'll save that for another day! Perhaps we'll have a before and after shot! ha!
When we were still looking at houses to buy in the area, we thought we were about ready to buy a house just 1-2 miles from here. Definitely out in the country here too! I would've enjoyed that. It was actually in a little neighborhood, but the houses were spread out quite a bit, so it would've still been enjoyable and country-like. What I would've enjoyed, was there were several barns in the area that were so photogenic and picturesque! Oh well, it wasn't meant to be; it got bought up before we were ready to start looking seriously.
Hope you all enjoy!
