On October 18th, 2020, I had the opportunity to chase SOO Line 2-8-2 Mikado #1003 between Hartford and Woodland, Wisconsin on the WSOR. The locomotive was being tested for the Santa Train and photo charter later in the year. I started my chase at Grant street, which is located just west of the Wisconsin Automotive Museum where the locomotive is kept. Around 10AM central time, the train departed Hartford for Woodland caboose first. I caught the train at the Rubicon curve and Lilac Road railroad crossing before the train stopped in Woodland. There the train would quickly prepare to run east to Slinger. After departing, I caught the consist flying passed the cemetery in Rubicon. I also got plenty of whistle action in downtown Hatford. The 1003 would once again go back west, but this time it would only go as far as Rubicon. Once the train cleared Hartford, I went back to the cemetery to get some aerial footage on my drone. The shot couldn't have been better. When the 1003 got back to the museum, I was allowed special access into the shop to shoot the steam locomotive pulling in after blowing off steam.
