Great pics. Time to go see the one at the train museum in Green Bay again.
It was fun to watch it steam past us in Kenosha.

..the 4014 will be passing through here in a few hours, or do, headed to Iowa.....should get a good chance at a vid at it doing a good clip.... huh....we'll see.. huh
..I went out west of town a few miles to a rural RR crossing and watching it roar along past like the giant beast it really is..... |^| |^| |^| |^| |^| |^|
