Two crew members walk alongside of the Iowa Pacific E8A #515 as it takes a break at Wauzeka. Due to a sand train and a WSOR local blocking the route into Prairie Du Chien, the passenger train will only make it as far as Bridgeport, a few miles up the line. |

Hey, the IC is back! |
Description: |
Well, momentarily at least. They used interchangeable magnetic plates to make the front of 515 read "Illinois Central" where it read "Iowa Pacific" on Friday (and where the 518 still does). The entirety of the IC branch up from Freeport is gone, but this train wears an IC passenger scheme-inspired paint job much like that of the Wisconsin and Calumet F-units that used to ply these rails. |

Pullman Rail Journeys' "Varsity" re-creation excursion ready to depart from the Kohl Center |
Description: |
For the first two weekends in October, Iowa Pacific/Pullman Rail Journeys re-created the "Varsity" service between Chicago and Madison. Somewhat ironically they re-created a Milwaukee Road passenger train using ex-C&NW E8s wearing an IC passenger scheme. Something from all three railroads that served Madison at one time. |

The adventure has been fraught with difficulties thus far, meaning this is the only E-unit (of any colors) available for this weekend. A WSOR SD40-2 is covering the other end of the train. |
