Wisconsin Central Limited #17 is seen at Stevens Point, WI on August 12, 1988.
Perhaps with an obvious lineage, the #17 is former Milwaukee Road #992217. Having come to the Soo Line through their 1986 merger, this caboose remained on the former Soo Line property and was assumed by Wisconsin Central forces to have been included in the WCL transaction. As it turns out, the financial institution that held the lease did not approve of this and required that the caboose be returned to Milwaukee reporting marks and sent off property.

"Downtown" Allenton, Wisconsin, as we were passing through. I've always enjoyed driving through small towns in farm areas.

BNSF 7903 and Canadian Pacific 9726 lead CP train 470 across the Wisconsin River at the tourist mecca of Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin on July 15, 2017.
Rare catch. This car has a throwback paint scheme for the Wisconsin State Patrol that was used from the 1960s to the 1980s. Also rare to see is a Chevrolet Caprice for the State Patrol.
About to set off for some shopping. There are those who say we should try to belnd in when out and about. No offense, but I simply cannot do that.
Call if vanity, if you will, but I have such a deepseated desire to be seen.
Amtrak's eastbound Empire Builder has just exited Wisconsin's only active railroad tunnel on February 15, 1993. The equipment on the siding was being used on the project to increase the clearance in the tunnel.
The WC shield, a bit battered, and bruised, but still proudly proclaiming its heritage, catches some late afternoon sun in the Waterville Yard. The 50' Plate C boxcars, once a staple of the midwest, have recently migrated east towards Pan Am, carrying SNC reporting marks (this one is SNC 21043). They have reinforced floors, and have a higher load weight for paper than the scores of old Maine Central and Boston & Maine boxcars that used to fill this role.
Wisconsin & Southern units 3803, 3810, 4010 & 3809 lead a lengthy train near Waupun, Wisconsin on February 17, 2016. I believe this was a combination of trains L595 & L597.
I'm posting this trio before I leave on my next trip tomorrow. Heading to Maine to see my dad and the rest of the Maine family. It will also mark a first for me-three Falls in one year (Alaska, Wisconsin, and Maine). After this trip, I'll be content to hang out in Sheboygan for a while. We'll see how long it takes before the next travel urge hits.
Amtrak PX923 - a special move of Talgo equipment bound for Seattle - crosses the Wisconsin River in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin on March 30, 2018. This is the rear portion of the train - it was led by Amtrak locomotive 161.
Effy and a friend playing in a Wisconsin fairytale wonderland. We had an amazing time with friends in an old log cabin on the Wisconsin River last weekend.

It is always nice to have a few minutes to photograph this tunnel in the Detroit Airport.

This is another look at the Wisconsin Point Lighthouse on Lake Superior, on the Wisconsin side of the Duluth, Minnesota-Superior, Wisconsin harbor entrance. It is on Wisconsin Point, which is at the end of peninsula that runs SE to NW, between Allouez Bay and Lake Superior. First lit in 1913, the lighthouse is an oblong cement structure with rounded ends; the light is 56 feet high. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007 (00070102) as Superior Entry South Breakwater Light. Other views of this lighthouse are in the Canada-Midwest set.
