Description:  6334 and 6313 have been on the WSOR (6313 apparently disappeared for a while, but came back) since early 2017. I'm still annoyed I never got a good shot of 6305 (MPI paint) during its brief stint in 2019.

A who's who of WSOR power
Title:  A who's who of WSOR power
Description:  From left, we have 4170, the class unit of what were the original six ex-CRIP SD40-2s acquired by the railroad in the early 2000s (then numbered 4001). It has been recently repainted into a special 40th Anniversary scheme. Then is 4219, ex-CP and the only red and gray unit with a low headlight. 6334 is one of the two Helm lease units (6313 is coupled behind it) than has been on the property since 2017. 4181, trailing the five-unit power move, is ex-BN and one of the last units acquired by the railroad in the Gardner era. 3947, facing off with the lead unit of the power move on the same track, is the first "new" unit brought on to the property under Watco ownership.

Crossing Forster Drive
Title:  Crossing Forster Drive
Description:  Although the original 8" Griswold lamps were replaced with the ubiquitous oversized L.E.D.s within the last few years, this crossing still retains its wide-pedestal gate mechanisms which were a common installation on both the C&NW and Milwaukee Road. Similar sets on E. Johnson Street, Baldwin Street, and Sherman Avenue have been replaced over the course of the last decade.
