WSOR 3801 |
| Description: |
Peek-a-boo! The 3801 snakes around the sharp curve and across Dayton St., startling traffic that cannot easily see the train from the road. The use of train horns has been banned in Madison, but there would probably be several deadly accidents per year if the WSOR ceased using them at the UW Heater |

3801 slices west through campus at another one of Madison's weird grade crossings. Mills and Dayton streets cross at a stoplight and the WSOR's Prairie sub cuts across the middle of the intersection at a 45 degree angle. Traffic can become quite congested here, especially when WSOR crews have to switch the UW-Madison coal heater plant |

| Description: |
The MABLT crew and the 2055 switch cars at the LaFarge cement plant, blocking Stoughton road in the process. The crossing at Stoughton road is the stupidest grade crossing in Madison, making it a contestant for the stupidest in Wisconsin. There used to be an over/underpass here, but some genius decided that routing six lanes of fast-moving, dense traffic under the most hideous crossing lights in the county would be a good idea |

WSOR 3801 |
| Description: |
The WSOR provides the power for today's MABLT crew. They've backed some coal loads down the Freeport spur, staging them until the workers at the UW-Heater plant shove them inside with a front-end loader. The end of the Freeport spur holds about 6 or 7 cars. |

WSOR 3801 |
| Description: |
The afternoon sun may provide perfect light for the 3801 as it ambles down the Cottage Grove spur, but the day has barely begun for the MALPM crew. |

WSOR 2054 |
| Description: |
WSOR 2054 leads a half dozen empty coal cars back towards the E. Johnson St. yard in Madison. There's no scheduled morning job on Sundays, so this might be an MEX (Madison extra local). |

UP 2997 |
| Description: |
A nose-bell equipped SD40-2 leads two sisters and a loaded ballast train along the Lake Monona shore (and makes a disaster of a traffic jam in the process). Just out of view to the left are some tennis courts scattered with tennis players holding their ears. The sound of rumbling EMDs and squealing flanges may be music to my ears, but I could see how it could bother some... ;-) |
