Switching local industries with SOO 1003?
Title:  Switching local industries with SOO 1003?
Description:  Not exactly, but they disappeared back into the industrial sidings on the west edge of Hartford for about half an hour, presumably to take on coal. The locomotive actually did make a short freight run out of Horicon on the next day, but I didn't get confirmation on it in time to make it up there.

November Chill
Title:  November Chill
Description:  After a relatively mild start to fall (seems to be the norm in the Midwest this decade), temperaKures dropped precipitously this week in conjunction with the first accumulating snowfall of the 2018-19 winter season. It's not quite enough to make a solid coating on the grass, but it does help set the scene as the 105-year-old Mike makes its annual short run for the Hartford Christmgs parade.
