Have been on vacation (was down in New Orleans also)for the last week and I decided to put up some photos from the Southeast Wisconsin area. One of the highlights was that Amtrak #66 on the Heritage units has been running on the Milwaukee-Chicago Hiawatha train set. Also caught some action in and around Duplainville.
