My wife and I traveled to the large train show in Madison, WI this past weekend for Mad City 2023. It is a huge model railroad show held both Saturday and Sunday at the Alliant Center usually in the 2nd or 3rd week of February.

There are so many great layouts on display, it's hard to highlight them all. A few that were shown here were: MOO Crew, Fond du Lac Society, Capital City N-Gineers, and so many others.

Dozens of vendors were on site to offer their products. Everything from scale trains and parts, scenery, buildings, and track, as well as collectable pictures, signs, locks, and timetables.

$Railfanning South Central Illinois: December 2017 On December 1st, 2017, I spent the day drifting toward the Monticello Rwy. Museum to catch the operation of their Polar Express train. Throughout the day I caught several trains at location around south central Illinois. First is an on-time Amtrak City of New Orleans #58 making its station stop at Effingham. Second is a CSX eastbound stack at Effingham. Third is a northbound CN manifest at Neoga. Fourth is a southbound UP frac sand train at Tuscola. Fifth is a westbound NS manifest at Bement. Sixth is an eastbound NS stack just west of Bement. Seventh is a westbound NS manifest switching at a small yard just west of Bement. Eighth is an eastbound NS stack just west of Bement. Ninth is the eastbound Triple Crown at Cerro Gordo and tenth just after the eastbound comes the westbound Triple Crown. Eleventh is an NS westbound autorack train. At that point I head up to the Museum and catch the crew getting the train switched and in position. Power is the Wabash F-7 #1189, and the train consisted of several passenger cars and a CP steam generator car. After that I took a look around the museum grounds and hung out with the tower operators learning to operate the interlocking.
