Faked out
Title:  Faked out
Description:  I was looking forward to chasing the train with 4223 leading. After killing a couple hours hanging out in the nice park by the old depot, I went back to check on the train and found a crew van had finally arrived! However, they cut 4223 off and ran it light into a siding across town before taking the train east with the other three units.

Five-unit power move pauses at the entrance to the WSOR yard
Title:  Five-unit power move pauses at the entrance to the WSOR yard
Description:  I thought this was what was left of T004, because I heard them giving back a warrant on the Waukesha Sub, but then a T004 came into town later in the afternoon. This is also my first train photo with my new Canon T8i. There was a bit of a learning curve with the focus feedback system on this camera vs. that of my old T1i, so I blurred the shots of this move crossing the road a few minutes later.
