This magnolia tree has just one blossom left for the season. They always seem to come and go so fast.
Seen at Olbrich Botanical Gardens.

Welcome aboard The 400
It’s time to give this website a new look.
This design is based on the paint scheme of the diesel engines and cars of the Chicago & North Western Railway’s 400 passenger service. I’ve always loved that paint scheme, and decided to incorporate it here on my site.
On the coding side, I developed the design based on the WordPress theme, Twenty Thirteen. It is fully responsive and will display well on ANY device.
For more information on the Chicago & North Western Railway, and it’s 400 service, I recommend:
- The 400 Story, an excellent book by Jim Scribbins
- Chicago & North Western, Route of the 400, from American-Rails.com
- Chicago & North Western Historical Society
Now… who can help me travel back in time so I can ride these wonderful trains?
Weed or living sunshine?

Taken on my first sunset bike ride of the season. Sure has been a gorgeous week in Madison.
