Wisconsin Central’s Byron Hill grade south of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin was among my favorite place to photograph trains in the mid-1990s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few weeks ago, Kris and I revisited a few of my old locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Lost Arrow Road, we caught a southward Canadian National double stack train on its ascent of the grade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February 1995, I’d pictured a Wisconsin Central loaded iron ore train with then new Southern Pacific DASH9-44CWs from almost the same angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the interval between the photos, the railroad has been converted from one main track to two, the grade crossing protection has been upgraded with crossing arms, and the trees have grown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
