CP 2246 leads a Holiday Train as it has done every year since 2014 |
| Description: |
Prior to that year, the Holiday Trains had been hauled exclusively by AC4400CWs since their inauguration in 1999. In 2014 and '16, 2249 hauled the US train while 2246 was assigned to Canada's train. This is also the first year I've caught it when the sun has been out for its daytime run through south-central Wisconsin, which brings out the clean red paint but dampens the colorful animated Christmas lights. |

CP 8709 again |
| Description: |
One of the first batch of GEVOs delivered to CP in the mid-2000s, they were the newest and cleanest power out there when I first took up railfanning although I was never fond of this bland text-only "CANADIAN PACIFIC" red paint scheme that came on CP's. They've reintroduced the Golden Beaver on repaints starting in late 2017, but to my knowledge all the GEVOs remain in the as-delivered scheme. |

R&GN 1924 "William E. Gardner" tops off with water for its next Pumpkin Train run |
| Description: |
The big Pacific has now joined its ex-Milwaukee County Zoo stable-mate Atlantic No. 1916 on the RGN. Both were built by the Sandley Light Railway Equipment Works, which was based here at the RGN, so this is a homecoming of sorts for them. Formerly named for Milwaukee Journal chairman Irwin Maier (the Journal funded the purchase of the locomotives for the Zoo); upon arrival at the RGN it was renamed for former Wisconsin & Southern Railroad CEO Bill Gardner, who funded its sale "back" to RGN. |
