AMTK 317 about to slam Popenfus' crossing with No. 8 eastbound |
| Description: |
Popenfus' is a Milwaukee Road-era local nickname for Ontario Street. I thought the Siemens Chargers were hideous when the short-haul version first appeared on the Hiawathas several years ago, but they've grown on me, especially with the Phase VI and VII paint schemes! |

CP 6017 leads 2WWA starting the pull toward the yard |
| Description: |
This unit had eluded my lens until now, although my dad caught a video of it leading a 281 way back in May, 2010 when it was still in CP Rail System "Dual Flags" paint. That scheme was badly faded then, and the locomotive would wear it for another twelve years! |

Yard job backs into the Meigs spur to pick up some tank cars |
| Description: |
The Meigs spur is actually the only remaining stub of the old Soo Line "P-Line" that once came down from Stevens Point (abandoned in the 1940s!), and the tail track used for headroom on it is a stub of the old MILW Northern Division line to Horicon/Milwaukee (abandoned between here and Cambria in the early '80s). |

AMTK 160 "Pepsi Can" heritage leads westbound Borealis 1333 |
| Description: |
My first catch of the "Borealis" service since it launched three months prior, I wanted to make sure to get it with one of the special/unusual units that has been frequenting it. This is a version of the scheme the B32-8WHs wore as delivered in the early '90s. I've caught this one before (leading No. 8, the eastbound Empire Builder, in February 2022), but the photo didn't turn out great and the video was unusable. Naturally, clouds filled in on what was forecast to be a mostly sunny afternoon. |
