Countryside
Title:  Countryside
Description:  The crew is cruising by the countryside at Byrne road in Fitchburg at a decent clip. The rehab done to this line allows 20mph or so track speed at this location. Sadly, my battery died before I could snap a pic of the restored baby-blue chevy at the grade crossing.

MX
Title:  MX
Description:  The crew brings their train to the diamond at the old site of Tower MX, a one-time crossing of busy C&NW and MILW lines. The junction still sees regular use - the daily freight between Janesville and Madison takes the connector track, and various local jobs cross the diamond and use the connector tracks to access the branch lines as they go about their duties.
