The Wisconsin Central's only SD35, the 2500 is also out here in the mix. I remember seeing this locomotive by the shed at Gladstone back in the early 2000’s while I passed by going fishing with my old man. I don’t remember what the locomotive looked like so much as I just remember it being maroon and gold and having a 2500 on the side. Of course, being a little kid and having now concept of how things change, I never photographed it in operation.

This was taken a number of years back when we still lived in Wisconsin. I was just getting started with photography and loved capturing barns and farms when I could. I believe this one was located not too far from Fox Lake, Wisconsin...and as usual, it was an overcast day! Hope you enjoy!

Milwaukee streetcar 02, a 2018 Brookville Liberty, on East St Paul Avenue crossing the bridge over the Milwaukee River on Thursday, October 13th, 2022
This is a typical scene from Southwestern Wisconsin's rolling hills. It has been raining a lot this spring so everything is really green.
Many of the RGBs were down on floating reeds and stems from last year's growth. I took the opportunity to photograph this one in an opening close to the edge. He gave me a trill.

I regularly drive by this building and have shot it before (see below comment) and have been thinking for the last year or so it was time to shoot it again, but had lots of excuses - bad light, rainy, snowy ground, no time etc. This time I saw it was no more procrastination. I had all the excuses, but knew it was now or never. I present here my last shots of the once proud Rising Sun Grange Hall in Ladoga Wisconsin.
