Huh. I'm surprised to see an RR use that in Wisconsin, given the troubles ice and snow have had on various crossing signal equipment.
Depending on the construction or activation mechanism, somehow I could see ice, snow, and cold combining to either cause the gate not to extend on lowering, or ...

Yesterday, while chasing an empty grain train with BNSF run-through power (heading for the DeLong Company elevator at Avalon), I decided to go to a crossing I'd never shot at before on the Wisconsin & Southern Prairie du Chien Subdivision (Park St. in Middleton, WI). Although the lights have long ...

On August 12, 2007 the first "Gandy Dancer Festival" bluegrass music festival was held in Madison, Wisconsin and the Wisconsin and Southern railroad provided free public excursions with one of their E-units and ex-C&NW bilevel coaches (which they would also do the following year, and then stop due ...

For the ten-year anniversary, just re-edited/uploaded this chase including the wigwag that was on 6th Street in Avoca, WI. It was removed within the next 7-10 days after the video. We also see a crossing in Lone Rock, WI with Safetran/RACO truss-type cantilevers (although the lights had already been ...

Feeling a little homesick today... was doing some browsing around places I had been in Illinois and came across this one in a town called Lewistown, IL, not too far from where my grandmother used to live.
