Description: |
WSOR GP38 3801 negotiates the curve as it takes the connector to the Prairie Sub. No cars today- this is probably just a run to the UW Heater coal burning plant to spot loads/retrieve empties |

WSOR 3801 |
Description: |
The 3801 returns from the Central Soya spur and passes over MX crossing, a diamond that's located in the middle of Monona Bay. I got really lucky with the timing and light in the shot, and why the hell not? It was my birthday! I'll also consider it a birthday present that I was not phoned in for tresspassing, but the throngs of die-hard tresspassing fisherman provide a good cover for a foamer. |

WSOR 3803 |
Description: |
3803 backs down the only active portion of what once was the IC's Madison-Freeport line. The short stub is about 4 blocks in length and is in detestable condition. The UW Heater plant stores empties there until the WSOR crews come to retrieve them. Also, remaining loyal to the seemingly idiotic city planning in Madison, the 3803 crosses one of MANY grade crossings that pass diagonally through a 4-or-more-way intersection |

WSOR 3801 |
Description: |
The 3801 pulls a long string of UW-Heater bound coal loads, creating traffic problems as it crosses Blair St. The old CNW Blair St. station is just out of view to the left. The train parallels Lake Monona (right) and slowly approaches the "tunnel" underneath the famous Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Monona Terrace. |
