WAMX 3928
Title:  WAMX 3928
Description:  L465 heads west through downtown Middleton with a paip of covered hoppers. The depot looks great and fits in well in what is a rather nice litlte downtown area. I don't know how the kids sitting by the depot couldn't be bothered to look up at the train - 3928's horn is rather loud!
