Viewing Album:  Gandy Dancer Festival Train Rides
 
By:Andre Wehrle
Dates:8/12/2007 - 7/20/2008
Album Info:The WSOR has offered free hourly train rides using one of their E9s and three ex-CNW/Metra bilevel coaches (one of them a cab car) in conjunction with the Gandy Dancer Bluegrass Music Festival in 2007 and 2008. Mid-Continent Railway Museum in North Freedom is also heavily involved in the festival. In 2007 the trains boarded at the future location of Madison Central Park at Ingersoll Street, and went north on the Reedsburg Sub to just beyond the County Highway M crossing. In 2008 the trains boarded in downtown Mazomanie on the Prairie du Chien Subdivision and went west about 5 miles to just beyond Arena.
