Stevens Point Trains in September 2020

Stevens Point, Wisconsin, USA.

On my last web page, I showed details about the new hoppers that passed through town.

Here are other things along the main..
There are plenty of SW 1500 switchers in town, including the WC painted unit (not shown here)

.

A CN 100 and a blue unit on a rainy day
.

And another races out from under Hoover Avenue, on the left track (Orchard siding), and the lead unit is already hidden
.

Here's the train of new hoppers that was shown on my previous web page
and a Q stack train is pulling past
.

Actually, they pull east 30 cars, split their train, and then back west into the yard.
Clearing the mainline, I guess.
Later, I see the Waupaca depot webcam shows the main is tied up with MOW,
so I quess this is their parking space for the afternoon.
.

The train of new hoppers had a crew change and then left.
In ten minutes, the signal goes from blinking red to green and along comes this BNSF
.

.

And I know Alan already made decals for a fleet of Marquis alcohol tank cars,
but I thought if I ever saw one up close and convenient, I would get a better picture of their trademark.

So 4 cars came along (which means this train is A491 heading to Wisconsin Rapids)

and I zoomed in (too much) and mostly missed every symbol. Oh well, there's always a next time.


.

And while A491 rolls west, there goes an Amherst patrol on Orchard Siding.
.

.

And away they go east at noon on a Thursday.
