Ethan Brodie and Brodie Photography are organizing a two-day photo charter in November featuring Soo Line No. 1003, the 1913 Alco 2-8-2 operated by the Hartford, Wis.-based Steam Locomotive Heritage Association.
One- and two-day tickets will be offered for the event Nov. 2-03, which will feature No. 1003 pulling a freight train including additional cars provided by the Wisconsin & Southern. Participants will drive by their own vehicles to locations that will be provided to paid participants. The event schedule will differe each day to provide a variety of morning, afternoon, and evening lighting; some photo locations will feature vintage vehicles and staged scenes.
Tickets — priced at $275 for Nov. 2, $325 for Nov. 3, or $475 for both days — are available here. For more information, contact brodiephotography412@gmail.com.
It will not be too difficult to ascertain the route followed from Hartford. The interesting possibility of ranging as far north as Plymouth or Elkhart Lake would provide outstanding photo shoots.
