WSOR on the old MILW
Title:  WSOR on the old MILW
Description:  The WSOR Horicon-Oshkosh turn arrived in the morning. I finally tracked it down in the afternoon and found the crew was gone (lunch?). I had to climb through marsh grass to get the shot, but it was worth the trouble. The WSOR has always been tough for me to catch outside their yards.
