WAMX 3894
Title:  WAMX 3894
Description:  A Wisconsin and Southern train fouls the grade crossing at the intersection of Clairville Road and State Highway 91 on the edge of Oshkosh. The crew is doing some final switching at what is now a United Co-op facility (previously ADM, and before that WSOR Transload facility). The train will then depart for the return to Horicon. The WAMX's are new to the WATCO owned Wisconsin and Southern (WSOR) to replace the 3800 series GP38's.

WAMX 3893
Title:  WAMX 3893
Description:  Working to Oshkosh out of Horicon, a WSOR train works the United Co-op facility in Pickett. The United Co-op has an agronomy center in Pickett that is a fairly busy rail customer. Note the newer paint scheme on the front of the unit. I think I prefer the smaller chevron stripes rather than the wide chevron.
