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!

A quick swing by Wisconsin and Southern's Horicon shop yielded a few shots of some WSOR EMDs sitting around on Veteran's Day 2024.

 

WAMX/WSOR SD40-2 4219 was built as Canadian Pacific 5518, the old GMD was sitting pretty in Cheeseland.

In honor of Ransome Riggs upcoming book on text and snapshots, I have posted a few more from my collection. Sometimes words do make the photo.

 

Homage to Wisconsin...

This is a typical scene from Southwestern Wisconsin's rolling hills. It has been raining a lot this spring so everything is really green.

We might think we have nice clouds in California, but nothing beats these beautiful fluffy meringue towers scattered after all the rain.

The 221 ft yacht moored next to the Wisconsin is the White Cloud.

WAMX locomotives 4172 & 4173 lead Wisconsin & Southern train L863 on the Reedsburg Subdivision near Rock Springs, Wisconsin on January 3, 2018.

A highly unusual sighting with Union Pacific 4141 in the consist of a general freight train as MPRWN-25 rolls west of Dalton, Wisconsin on UP's Adams Subdivision on May 26, 2019.

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.

Canadian Pacific commemorative locomotive 7020 leads a nicely-powered CPKC train 247 out of Columbus, Wisconsin on September 19, 2024.

Wisconsin & Southern symbol T004 (Horicon-Janesville) does the maximum allowed track speed (I think 40mph here?) through the small town of North Prairie on its way to Janesville via Whitewater and Milton.

Petrifying Springs Park Kenosha, Wisconsin.

Southeast Wisconsin hasn't turned red yet, but the colors are still amazing.

I couldn't find my boots so I toughed out the cold Wisconsin water. Within three minutes my feet felt as if pins were hitting them as debris floated by touching my feet. However, I saw what I wanted and kept in the water for about twenty minutes until the lighting was what I wanted and the water was nice and glassy.

A tag free WC white gondola in CN mow service wandered into Keenan over the weekend.

I stopped for this little barn because it's so great. Alas, a No Trespassing sign kept me from exploring futher.

A pair of F units pose for photos at the WGNS yard in Trego.

 

Taken October 25, 2019, at the Wisconsin Great Northern Railroad of Trego, Wisc. This was a night photo session for the C&NW Historical Society, with lighting by Steve Smedley.

The railroad offers both freight and passenger service over the former Chicago & North Western line between Spooner and Hayward.

Northbound Wisconsin Central freight passing by Oshkosh Truck and the Wisconsin Central's yard in Oshkosh in the early days of the WC. Shooting in the evening gives great detail on the SDL39 and gives a great profile of myself.

Pewit’s Nest, Souk County, Wisconsin. 17-10-2017.

 

I had to drive for over 1.5 hours to reach this location before sunrise. Once the sun is up, its light hits the distant trees and the contrast becomes unmanageable.

 

This little gorge, created by retreating glaciers, has long suffered from graffiti and trash. Collecting beer bottles, coke cans and even a sock were routine activities on my visits. Several people have also injured themselves while climbing the walls or jumping into the water, all prohibited for a good reason. I believe access to the area in the photo is now restricted.

Biking the country roads of Wisconsin is one of the best ways to enjoy the fall colours, but I can live with driving in a car at the low speeds, especially given the ability to capture moments like these :)

Hwy 19, Wisconsin (USA)

The rear end of the UPS train heads down the C&WI and across Torrance Ave in South Chicago. In the background is the old Wisconsin Steel plant which closed a few years after this shot in March of 76.

The warm spring sun is about to turn the light off at North Fond du Lac, as TO44's power backs onto it's train. The ATSF 5390 would become the WC 6620 in the coming months.

Spring 1995

Six of Wisconsin & Southerns EMD fleet, four GP38-2's and two SD40-2's pull L599 and thunder towards their interchange with the CN, in Ackerville.

 

The sound of of all six notched out, keeping their train of 145 + loads to track speed, is something else entirely.

 

Wisconsin ROCKS & ROLLS!

 

If anyone can help with a location, as my notes seem to have gone walk about....
