SE Wisconsin Railfan
Spent a couple of hours out at Southeast Wisconsin's HotSpot Duplainville. I had just returned from a trip out West to see ATSF #3751 on the Grand Canyon Limited train from LA to Grand Canyon. Those pictures will be coming later.

The time at Duplainville was quite fruitful so I will share some of the fruits of my labors. I did have some other railfans out there with me including a member of this forum.

Cool variety. I would have chased that Rio Grande unit all the way to its destination if I would have seen it!

Great shots. the highlight of my day would have been the Rio Grande GP60!!! Awesome catch!! Rio Grande only had 3 of those. Wonder if there are any other DRGW units running around on UP???

I believe only 3 patched DRGW units are left on the Union Pacific. Two are GP60s, and one is a GP40-2. I'm not 100% positive, but I thought that is what I have heard.
