Rail Day after Christmas

Rail Day after Christmas

I'm taking the scenic route to the Fleet Farm store for the sales on the day after Christmas, a Saturday.

Whiting, Wisconsin. The big Paper Mill is in the distance. GT 4934 came up from Plover.

.

Stevens Point, Water Street, east bound before noon

.

.

BC Rail

.

.

And another !

.

.

There's also a westbound CN with 4 units waiting by the depot

.

.

Still moving, coming across Hoover Avenue on the east side of Point

.

.

Stockton, east of Point.

.

.

Enough of this BC. They are moving over 40 mph now, and I'm two miles beyond Fleet Farm anyway.

.

.

The Sun disappeared for a while. Lucky we had those few hours because most of the Midwest has snow to the south and west of us yet.
EJE 659 is switching the A yard, passing over the Plover River

.

.

The Slug set is still around

.

.

unknown Sw and CN/WC 1566 switching the B yard,
(and Roundy's warehouse security is also watching me)

.

.

Another eastbound arrived in the afternoon.
CN 5713, CN 5502, and EJE 669.
And CN 9626 is sitting on a short string of cars.

.

That's a lot of loco's moving for just a few hours of watching,
and I was away from the tracks awhile when I was shopping, too.
