Wisconsin Central, Vol. 1 - Featuring WC SD45, SDL39, GP35, GP40, and SW1500 Locomotives

In this video, C. Vision Productions takes you back to 1991 to experience classic railroad action on the Wisconsin Central from the camera of Dan Hadley. We'll see trains on WC's Chicago, Superior, Minneapolis, Bradley, Pembine, and Soo Subs. In addition to train operations, we'll get an inside look at the railroad's Customer Service Center and dispatching office in Stevens Point. After that, we fast forward to 2002 to view a few trains shortly after the CN takeover of Wisconsin Central. We'll begin our coverage of the WC on the Chicago Sub south of Fond du Lac. This section of track is home to the well-known Byron Hill. Next, we take a journey along the original Soo Line main to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. The Bradley, Pembine, and Soo Subs are all covered in this segment. We then cover the Superior and Minneapolis Subs before heading to Stevens Point. To round out our show, we see a few trains in the Canadian National era on the Whitehall, Superior, and Valley Subs. WC's SD45 fleet looks and sounds great, with the locomotives wearing both Burlington Northern green and WC maroon and gold. Other locomotive models seen include GP35, GP35M, GP38-2, GP40, SW1500, and the rare SDL39 units.
