Naturally, I can't buy a catch of this unit leading in the proper orientation ever since it was painted. |

Long-hood forward as always, WAMX 4219 clatters across Twin Valley Road with the westbound Prairie job |
| Description: |
Third time catching this unit with the unique short hood leading a train since it was painted in late 2017/early 2018, third time it has been long hood forward. LOL. |

T006 is three units and one tank car, T004R is two units and one tank car |
| Description: |
T6 (in radio shorthand), the train from Madison, will set out their tank car on the UP interchange before calling it a day. T4R is switching the refrigerated argon tankers that are transloaded in the old coach yard. I found this odd because their usual task is to get on board the train from Horicon (T4) and take it on to Chicago. What they did next was even stranger... |

Golden light tease |
| Description: |
A train calling themselves T4R was working the yard, and I assumed they'd eventually do what they usually do and take the Horicon train out toward Chicago, so I sat along that line for a while. Eventually I pieced together what they were actually doing, which was taking the local to Monroe! Unfortunately, by the time I realized this they'd beaten me to the crossing on Rockport Road, so I hauled @$$ to get ahead of them only for them to stop short of Hanover Road to wait for MoW of some sort to give back the track. Oh well, my long-hood-forward curse with 4219 (unique on the WSOR for its CP-style headlight mounted on the short hood, and red goose logo below it) held firm anyway. |

Some slow-shutter-speed and panning, plus some Photoshop tweaking makes this look much brighter than it really was. |

A Lucky Catch In The Fog |

This was a lucky catch of WSORs 40th Anniversary unit as I had not idea it would be here when I went to catch this train. |

| Description: |
A nice comparison of the new and old paint schemes side by side as L353 passes the repainted triclops. A lot of fans that I knew were not big fans of the new paint scheme when it was finally revealed. I think it is pretty unique. |

WAMX 4219 |
| Description: |
T4 passes the siding switch signal as the train continues into the yard. By this time it was getting fairly late in the afternoon. With no signs of UP or CP showing up, we decided to follow the CP back to Rockford. We never did end up finding them, so we went and grabbed some lunch at Dairy Queen in Aboite and headed back into Illinois. We were pretty happy with our WSOR catches. Hope to come back here soon! |
