Album Info:This is where it all started for WSOR. Former Milwaukee Road trackage connects Glendale Yard at North Milwaukee to Horicon, where branches radiate west to Cambria (a former through line once connected to Portage), and north to Oshkosh/Markesan. The Plymouth Subdivision also goes north out of Glendale Yard, with ownership alternating between WSOR and Canadian National. A short stub of a former industrial branch through the heart of downtown Milwaukee is still operated from that yard, as well. A few classic and/or unique locomotives can usually be found sitting outside the shops in Horicon.

WSOR cab car No. 11
Title:  WSOR cab car No. 11
Description:  This used to be one end of WSOR's bilevel excursion set. I don't believe it has carried passengers for about four years. The tank car was later relettered LLTX (Steam Locomotive Heritage Association) and serves as a water tender for Soo Line 1003, the 2-8-2 preserved at the Wisconsin Auto Museum in Hartford, when it roams further afield than usual.

Outcasts
Title:  Outcasts
Description:  The WSOR 702 and 3812 sit on a siding midway between the depot/paint shop area and the west yard. The 3812 is bad-ordered and is the only one of the ex-NdeM GP38-2s that is not repainted to WSOR colors and in service. 702 should work (unless it has suffered some sort of breakdown I don't know about) but may not be needed.
