On November 14, 2021, Kris and I were invited to participate in a Trains Magazine-sponsored photo freight with Soo Line 2-8-2 Mikado No. 1003.
The trip was organized by Angela Pusztai-Pasternak and hosted by Wisconsin & Southern.
Although we only joined the trip for a few of the scheduled run-bys, we had a wonderful time and made dozens of satisfying photos.
The trip was very special for me because it was the last time I saw Jim Wrinn—late Editor of Trains Magazine.

Last Sunday (November 14, 2021), Kris and & I caught up with the Trains Magazine steam photo charter operated with preserved Soo Line 2-8-2 Mikado 1003.
The day was cold, cloudy and snowing lightly; conditions that made for some excellent steam locomotive photography.
The charter was working on the far reaches of the Wisconsin & Southern network north of Horicon, Wisconsin.
I exposed this view using my Panasonic Lumix LX7, and processed the RAW file in Adobe Lightroom.
