AMTK 169
Title:  AMTK 169
Description:  After about another 2 hours of driving, we finally made it into the Lake Dolton/Wisconsin Dells area. We went to our timeshare presentation, and even though our speaker was pretty fun, we werent convinced to buy any of the packages. We were let out just in time to head over to the Amtrak station in the Dells and catch AMTK 7 coming west for its station stop. Today, the Empire Builder was running 3 minutes early which suprised me since this train is usually the one that seems to get delayed the worse. The station is a nice spot to watch trains and it will be a nice place to sit when I watch for a short time tomorrow. After catching Amtrak we went to a Pizza Lab place, which is where we could design our own pizzas, kind of like Subway. That was some of the best pizzas I have ever had. The only problem with coming up here this time of year is that most of the outdoor attractions are still closed for Winter. I guess you wouldnt want to mess around at an outdoor waterpark with it only being 40 degrees outside anyway. We stayed at the Springhill Suites by Marriot, which was very nice! Looking forward to an exciting day tomorrow!

AMTK 169 and AMTK 119
Title:  AMTK 169 and AMTK 119
Description:  AMTK 7 crosses the Wisconsin River departing the Wisconsin Dells station. The bridge over the Wisconsin River is the original one from the MILW/Soo Line days and it will make an excellent prop to shoot trains going over tomorrow!
