Title:  L724 passes the WSOR Burro crane
Description:  The Burro set seems to be permanently stored on this siding in Cross Plains, as it's always here when I go by. Never thought to include it in a shot with a train until now. I broke off the chase of L469 after it cleared Olin Avenue to catch up with this, the other train I had a heads up on for this day.

Title:  KRL (Kasgro) 8-axle well flat bearing a transformer, second in L724's train
Description:  Loads like this are somewhat unusual on the WSOR's branch lines out of Madison, so it made this train a worthwhile catch despite the overcast skies and long-hood-forward leaser power.
