The 4078 splits the wags in downtown Baraboo. I gave up the chase after this, hoping that the crew could make it the rest of the way to their destination without having to deal with the kicker again. |

Train lover that I am, I'll chase in good and bad weather regardless of the power. For the sake of the crews, I'll always root for them to have the reliable equipment they need in order to do their jobs safely and efficiently. Having said all that, I sure am happy that this crew has the 4030 today, and not one of the WAMX ex-UP patch jobs! |
