Viewing Album:  Last Days Of Wisconsin Central
 
By:David Stewart
Dates:8/20/2001 - 8/23/2001
Album Info:Like others, I wanted to photograph the WC be for CN took over. Although the CN haulage trains were running several times a day, I still shot them to show the changes that were to come. In August of 2001, Two fellow railfans and I went to the WC. These pictures are from the Duplainville area and also have some shots of some CP trains seen at the dimonds. On the way to the WC we followed the IC and captured a south bound in Tuscola Il. with two WCs leading which was just what we wanted to see.

WSOR 6641
Title:  WSOR 6641
Description:  What a treat the north bound WSOR local was. A trio of former CNW SD18s. These units stated life as Southern Railway high hood SD24s and when retired by Southern, Where sold to Presion National who used them in short term lease service. After that the units were sold to CNW who rebuilt them to SD18 specs by removing the turbo charger and dynamic brakes. During this time, The units had retained their high short hoods. When retired by UP, The units were picked up by WSOR who chopped the short hoods. At the time this photo was taken, Only one out of the four the WSOR had picked up had been repainted.
