Ya never know what CN will run north out of Wausau.....Today we caught A461 with a pair of NS D9-40CW's

 

[WCL]

Nothing special here....Just C703 leaving Wisconsin Rapids on its way to Weston's Power Plant

Shot isn't much but what the hell...

WC was a little power short in Wausau today so it appears they stole a BN 70MAC from the coal train that's currently unloading at Weston. It's paired up with one of WC's SD45s and is lugging hard on a healthy T018 bound for Stevens Point to be switched. The BN unit should return north tomorrow on T017 and hopefully it will be leading!!

Nice shot there Steve....

Pic of some WC power laying over in the Points engine facility






On this scorching summer day....Train LO17 makes its way out of Point and makes its daily run to Wausau......Bet the crew wishes they were at where that billboard says right about now.....BUT, with the lil help of the AC in these locos, I am sure they are doing just fine......




Heading past the Stevens Point Depot




Heading across the Wisconsin River




Slowing to take the NE leg of the WYE to take its train up to Wausau






Coming thru Knowlton




Heading past Mosinee




Passing the Weston 3 power plant

Nearing the end of its run, the train weaves its way into the Wausau yard

Nice and interesting power for the Wausau train!

Had to return the power to Wausau so it can run light back to Weston for its empties to take train C704 back out west

 

[WCL]

On my way to my grandparents house here in Wausau....I heard on the scanner that LO11 is making its way thru town and heading this way....So I raced up 6th street and headed over to Gilbert Park and set up my camera right on the other side of Jimma Creek where it flows into the Wisconsin River....And what a nice treat on this train...A good ol GP30 with 2 SDL39's

 

[MDG84]

Gotta love those ole GP30's and SDL 39's!

[WCL]

199 heading thru Junction City

 

[007007]

The Canadians are going to be pissed about that leader... No microwave or fridge?!

 

[WCL]

Thought all them big GE locos are equipped with a fridge??? Micro's I dont know, but fridges I though so???

 

[007007]

Microwaves are a CN exclusive thing as far as I'm aware but the NS C40s only have iceboxes. :n:

 

[WCL]

Caught a pair of WC F45's on Byron Hill today
