Hello! This is a railfan channel located in the South Eastern part of Wisconsin, hence the name SE Wisconsin Railfan. Most of the videos are CN, Wisconsin Southern, and every now and then CP or UP, and even Amtrak. I try to upload Monday-Friday, and occasionally the weekends, between 3, and 3:30. Hope you all enjoy!

Very nice video, likes from me!!!
Sounded like the pusher was doing most of the work.
Excellent catch! Equipment is from 32nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team; Wisconsin Army National Guard Headquartered @ Camp Williams, WI heading to Joint Readiness Training Center - Training Rotation #24-08 @ Camp Johnson, LA.
Thanks for all of that!

Nice catch of this meet! Had no idea KCS had a unit that honors veterans! Lol. First time you were at Brookfield road in a while too. I managed to barely catch a meet on this line back in September of last year. It was on the Calhoun road crossings. Next crossings east of this one. Not gonna lie, they are a nice spot to catch a meet since they are separate crossings, you get more signals flashing which is a bit more interesting IMO.
Awesome lashup
Indeed!
About 130 cars. That's a good car count for a Regional Road
Sure is. One of the biggest trains I've caught on the WSOR.
That sure was a mega train with quite a mix of power. I guess that was over 2 mi long. Murky enough to make a difference but stilll visible enough to watch. Also no thousands of pedestrians that Pewaukee is famous for during the summer
I don't know the exact length, but it was a monster. That's a bonus of cold days in Pewaukee, no people at the beach!
Interesting set of power with quite the variety of cars in the consist. It's funny when you look at it you can see cars from Sault Ste Marie some from off the E&LS and tben Waupaca. Glad you were there to catch this one
Yea, I've seen a whole bunch of weird cars. I can't tell where they all come from though...
Nice catch
Thanks!
Nice catch! I like how this one has just one loco in the front and the other in the back. Reminds me of some Metrolink passenger trains. I was in frame park in Waukesha and caught 3 trains passing Moreland Blvd and White Rock Ave, plus briefly one on Main #1 of the Watertown sub. Man was I on a roll today!
Thanks! Waukesha can be pretty busy at times. The traffic after every train can be crazy sometimes, especially during rush-hour!
@@SEWisconsinRailfan definitely got a taste of Waukesha's traffic today lol!
Good video. Happy Memorial Day.
Thank you!
Nice catch! Perfect loco for memorial day! Reminds me of the CSX armed forces loco. I was at the parade in Elm Grove at the Watertown plank road crossing. I was hoping to catch a train splitting the parade in half. Lol. I had to leave about 3/4 the way through though. And as me and my parents were biking back, I could hear the engine of a train a little further away. I was certainly annoyed as heck knowing if I had just stayed a little longer, I would have caught it! Way to have the worst luck ever. (Though that train could have been from the UP Milwaukee sub for all I know) Any how, still a fun day. Happy memorial day!
Interesting story! I'm pretty sure that train would've been CP. UP is a little ways away. In regards with this unit, it's fitting for this day. I caught it roughly 2 weeks ago, and have been waiting till this day to upload it!
Good catch. LMTVs, FMTVs, and HEMTTs
Thanks! I have the names, now I gotta figure out what is what! I'm no military expert...
@@SEWisconsinRailfan FMTV - Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles, a blanket name for a ll of the variations of severe-duty, military trucks that can be configured to do different jobs. LMTV Light Medium Tactical Vehicle - a 2.5-ton payload capacity platform, MTV Medium tactical Vehicle - a 5 ton payload capacity The largest trucks on the train were HEMTT, Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck These can be configured to do different jobs as well. Rugged, off-road capable, and can haul very heavy payloads.
Good video.
Thanks!
Nice lashup.
Thanks!
👍
Nice catch of the 6000 rebuild leader!
Thanks!
Serving probably the only ethanol plant that has rail connections that doesn't use it
I like how you film a train. No time skips no camera rotations, just put the camera on the train and it roll on by.
Thanks! Some people like what I do, others don't.
Great video
Thanks!
Awesome video! Did you see the OCS from that day as well?
I did not... I left my house pretty late, an missed him by a minute or two.
@@SEWisconsinRailfan dang. Well I was able to get him in Friesland
Did you ever catch this train? He was rolling at this speed for a while!
Nice catch! Judging by the bell-less signals and that your in duplainville, I could immediately tell you were at the springdale road crossing lol. Nice spot for a change from the Duplainville road crossing. Also like the P3 horn on the leader. Used to see those alot on SOO SD-40's
Thanks! You sure know this area pretty well. I moved to this road because Duplainville was packed! The P3 was a nice, I'm not old enough to remember them on Soo units though!
@@SEWisconsinRailfan Thanks! Ya, it helps when you live nearby the watertown sub and have been by and are familiar with majority of the crossings on it since you were a kid. Ya there were Soo SD-40's with P3's. Used to see them alot pulling short freight trains. They are more than likely repainted into the CP livery by now though.
Great video to hear.Don't know why i like the sounds of freight trains so much(white noise?) but this was a good one Thanks.......Steve
I love the sound of them as their coming towards you. Distant trains sound awesome as well. Who needs a therapist when you have trains!
Good video.
Thanks!
This is 730. When 246 fills out on autoracks or enough empties build up in Cottage Grove, they originate a 730.
Thanks for the correct symbol, and info!
Good video.
Thanks!
Amazing 😍
This is actually Menomonee Falls. Sussex is further west.
You might've been mistaken by somewhere else, but this was HWY 164, in Sussex. I forgot to add the description, with the location.
@@SEWisconsinRailfan Sure enough, I thought it was Lilly Road.
Wow Amazing I m ur new friend please pray for me n support me fully visit my side
Cool catch 😎
Thanks!
Very nice 👍🏻
Good video.
Thanks!
Nice catch! Love the shiny paint job on the leader. Also cool that the friendly engineer gave ya a horn show there!
Thanks. Wisconsin Southern keeps there units relatively clean (unlike CP...). I always appreciate little horn shows. The guys on this train are usually pretty nice.
@@SEWisconsinRailfan "(Unlike CP)" Lol for real!
Good video.
Thanks!
Nice catch of the trio!
Thanks!
Good video.
Thanks!
Nice.
Thank you!
Good catch. Thanx for the story to go with it in the description section.
Thanks!
Nice catch! Night catches are one of my favorite ways to catch a train. Especially if it's at a railroad crossing. Earlier today, I caught Amtrak 8 passing Pilgrim Rd #1/North Avenue. The leaders were typical chargers. The unique part was at the end of the train. A northern skyline car! I think it was the first time a saw one of those in person.
Awesome!
@@unstableatoms3456 Thanks! I wasn't even expecting on running into #8 today! Lol
Thanks! I enjoy night railfanning, it's a cool experience in person, but it's a little difficult to capture with my equipment, I don't have any fancy gear. In regards with that #8, I got a heads up of it to late to catch, oh well. I'd like to start catching more CP's on the Watertown Sub, I just haven't been railfanning it very much.
@@SEWisconsinRailfan Cool! Sorry you couldn't catch it. But ya, funny thing, I wasn't even expecting it. I was riding a van heading to my main high school. I was looking back at the Pilgrim Rd #2 crossing (the one you filmed.) with my phone out, and I turn around and the signals on #1 lit up. I was like "oh wow." They were deactivated last I checked. What a day it was.
Nice catch of the flagless GEVO leading the empty military train!
Thanks!
Interesting catch.
Thanks!
Yeah 😎
Nice catch! I know this used to be a road crossing, but it still baffles me that its a pedestrian crossing and its still a quiet zone.
Thanks! It's sure an odd one, but at least it's here.
WOW great cacth 🥇
Thanks
👍
Great video and thanks for sharing. Dave
Thanks!
Nice catch & duo SE!
