Title:  CP 3017 leads the G64 as it crosses Ontario St. (Popenfus')
Description:  The 3000-series CP GP38s (especially with their original Canadian style cab-front bells) have proven elusive in motion for me. Too bad it's not still in the Multimark (Pac-Man) paint like it was when I saw it in 2007!

CP 2246 leads a Holiday Train as it has done every year since 2014
Title:  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.

Another eastbound manifest delayed by the Holiday Train gets underway from Mile Creek Siding
Title:  Another eastbound manifest delayed by the Holiday Train gets underway from Mile Creek Siding
Description:  The area of the Tomah Sub between Lyndon Station and Mauston is a bit off the beaten path, as the ROW diverges from the parallel US 12/WIS-16. You have to take secondary roads to stay with the tracks, and I had never really done so until now. It's a rather scenic, secluded area, and I'll have to keep it in mind for future shots!
