The red and gray still rules |
| Description: |
The purchase of Wisconsin and Southern by WATCo was widely speculated to be the end of units being painted in WSOR's classy red and gray scheme. They proved that wrong with the former ugly duckling ex-UP GP39-2 3928. |

There are a lot of communities in the southern two-thirds of Wisconsin that would not have the level of freight rail service (if any at all) that they do today if not for the state and county-level rail transit preservation efforts that began in the early '80s and culminated in today's WSOR. |

The crew has their ponies pulling hard on the Lycon loads as they head out of town. They're about to pass through a rock cut and under Badger road and the Beltline highway. In the distance you can see the junction with the Vita Spur near Olin Avenue. Some of Madison's newer (and pricier) high rise apartments and condos loom in the distance, a stark contrast to my photo location on Badger road. |

MX |
| Description: |
The crew brings their train to the diamond at the old site of Tower MX, a one-time crossing of busy C&NW and MILW lines. The junction still sees regular use - the daily freight between Janesville and Madison takes the connector track, and various local jobs cross the diamond and use the connector tracks to access the branch lines as they go about their duties. |
