Here we see the last unit that sports the C&O letters leading the way on a Wisconsin & Southern Railroad freight that runs from Janesville WI to Monroe WI and back.

  • Nice Vid.....

    Was wondering why the WSOR has so many flat spots on the cars they carry in consist?

  • Thanks man! A lot of the cars in that train like the "San Fe"s have really old wheels, in fact, they cannot even be interchanged w/ other roads. Some of the noise though is due to the WSOR having mostly jointed rail where there are joints about every 39 feet, which causes more of a clickity clack sound. Most of the bigger roads have welded rail, where there is only a joint every quarter milem

  • I really love these crossings.

  • Yea, they are pretty cool.

  • Is that yellow unit a Western Pacific SD40?

  • No, its WSOR 4054, before it was painted. It is an ex UP.

  • Wow. This is very rare for the time. Too bad the paint scheme really doesn't exist anymore. This engine is museum-worthy when it's retired in my opinion. Is it still in the C&O paint or did they paint it over?

  • Excellent video, and awesome catch with that ex-C&O unit, too bad they didn't keep it in those colors...

  • Nice Video!

    5/5

  • AWESOME VIDEO DUDE

  • Saw this engine at Folkston, Georiga in August 2008, by October it has been repainted in the new CSX paint scheme.

  • It's in fresh CSX YN3 paint now...

  • There is a C&O SD-45 switching the rival yard at CSX right now! Old school

  • Sweet. It looks like id be a easy engin to change to CSX. Just paint over the C&O and put CSX on the side. Awsome vid.
