ICE in Janesville (4209)

No wonder they have street signs with snow warnings on all roads entering the city.
At first we heat the air a little with dynamic braking, coming off the WSOR to a stop right on the crossing while the conductor walks forward from the end of the train.
Then it's southward out of town, past one of those street signs...

Nice catch. I've never seen this train down there. What time was this?

[MILW753]

Well, after 9AM it was - camera time is still wrong.

Thanks. 10 did sound unusually late to me.

Thank you - that was today shortly after 10 AM. They had just turned by backing around the WSOR wye. A late, long CJ showed up shortly thereafter (unless that train just came from Darien/Elkhorn, had lots of grain hoppers).
