WAMX 3947 In Your Face
Title:  WAMX 3947 In Your Face
Description:  Normally this perspective is frowned upon, but the train is parked with no crew and the engines shut down. 3947 was the first addition that Watco made to the locomotive fleet on the WSOR system back in spring of 2014. It was soon joined by 3928 (As built, those two were sequentially numbered on the D&H and again on the UP), which received a WSOR 35th Anniversary scheme in the early summer of 2015 (the last with the thin chevron stripes on the short hood). 3947 remained in hideous patched UP yellow until the spring of 2017.

Description:  The L468 crew starts the pull west toward Madison (normally the train that works this branch is the L464). This train was held due to the emergency response to a catastrophic gas main explosion in downtown Sun Prairie the previous evening.

Title:  Wider view of this attractive EMD duo kicking up dust as it crosses Twin Lane Road
Description:  The trailing unit is one of two Helm (HLCX) units currently active on the WSOR system. It was built as a Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México SD40, since upgraded to SD40-2 standards. It is also one of very few (may be the last) units left in the maroon and blue paint scheme.

Title:  WAMX 3947 about to depart Johnson St. yard
Description:  The train has stopped, and two crew members have walked out into the street to direct traffic. The train will also use its horn at the normally "quiet" crossing, as the signals and gates aren't functioning for some reason.

A who's who of WSOR power
Title:  A who's who of WSOR power
Description:  From left, we have 4170, the class unit of what were the original six ex-CRIP SD40-2s acquired by the railroad in the early 2000s (then numbered 4001). It has been recently repainted into a special 40th Anniversary scheme. Then is 4219, ex-CP and the only red and gray unit with a low headlight. 6334 is one of the two Helm lease units (6313 is coupled behind it) than has been on the property since 2017. 4181, trailing the five-unit power move, is ex-BN and one of the last units acquired by the railroad in the Gardner era. 3947, facing off with the lead unit of the power move on the same track, is the first "new" unit brought on to the property under Watco ownership.
