UP 2997
Title:  UP 2997
Description:  A nose-bell equipped SD40-2 leads two sisters and a loaded ballast train along the Lake Monona shore (and makes a disaster of a traffic jam in the process). Just out of view to the left are some tennis courts scattered with tennis players holding their ears. The sound of rumbling EMDs and squealing flanges may be music to my ears, but I could see how it could bother some... ;-)
