Ex-Citirail Engine Pulling Ore Jennies in Amherst, WI
10/5/24--I was heading to Stevens Point, WI (great railroad town) for some pictures when I saw a CN mixed freight heading west, so I pulled off in Amherst to get a video. What I wasn't expecting was an ore jenny train coming from the other direction! That was fine with me, though, particularly as it had one of the ex-Citirail engines on the front! CN 2751 (ex-Citirail) and CN 3353 lead the train; CN 3361 will bring up the rear. This bridge is over Wilson Street in Amherst, WI. Enjoy!

Metra 161 Whizzes through Winnetka Station
Просмотров 542 месяца назад
8/17/24 - Following another Cubs victory (they're now 4-0 when I go to Wrigley Field this year), headed over to Winnetka to see a couple of trains. I wound up seeing 3 because this unscheduled one came flying through the station. Metra 161 leads a few coaches that (obviously) have nobody from Winnetka on them. Enjoy!

6/15/24 - I was going to film at Winnetka Station, but they were having a festival there, so this wound up being a better place to get a video. Metra 121 dashes by without stopping - I think it was on its way to Ravinia Park for a concert. Filmed from the western platform.

eastbroadtop.com/ 7/5/24 After taking a ride on the East Broad Top Railroad, be sure to pay a visit to The Little Ice Creamer, just north on Highway 522. This roadside stand has delicious dessert treats, and if you time it right like I did, you can watch the next train roll past!

NS 4620 and WFRX 8871 Lead a Tank Car Train Past 6.5 Mile Road in Caledonia, WI
Просмотров 214 месяца назад
4/24/24 - If you're in the Milwaukee area, one place you can catch a lot of trains is on Six and a Half Mile Road in Caledonia, just south of Exit 326. This is a great place to watch the trains because there's no crossing, so your car won't be in the way of anybody trying to go across. The only drawback is, the trains don't honk here (unless you're waving), so they'll sneak up on you unless you...

      I checked the spot on the Google maps and as I understand it, the first car wanted to go straight ahead, i.e. across the crossing and thus had to stop and wait for the train to pass, but the pulled-over car wanted to turn right onto the road that is parallel with the railway track and thus didn't want to wait for the first car to move and passed it on the left. Now, I don't know anything about American traffic rules, so could please someone tell me what rules did he break with that maneuver?
