Album Info:WSOR provides the vast majority of the train action in the rail hub of Rock County. It remains an interesting regional railroad under Watco ownership although there have been quite a few changes. UP serves a few industries around town and runs the occasional unit grain train through to the Landmark Co-op at Evansville via their Harvard Sub from Proviso, although their traffic is a shell of what it was before the GM plant closed in 2008. CP makes cameo appearances via their ex-SOO/IMRL/IC&E branch line up from Davis Jct./Rockford, IL.

Even when I catch WSOR trains moving in Janesville, they're still led by Armour Yellow

Description:  I think this was T006 based on the boxcars up front, but it could be some mishmash of T004 and T006 since with how much switching they do at Milton and at the Rotamer siding, it's rare for any consist that gets yarded at Janesville to remotely resemble what left Madison and Horicon earlier that day.

Stay Gold
Title:  Stay Gold
Description:  Actually, don't. As well as this SD60M's patched UP paint matches the fall colors, I'd much rather it and its trailing sister be in a fresh coat of red and gray after a year and a half on the railroad.

Nothing But Engines
Title:  Nothing But Engines
Description:  With most of the train (including a long cut of flats loaded with USMC JLTVs built at Oshkosh) set out at Milton, remainder at Anderson just north of here, T004 is just six motors light into Janesville Yard.
