This is the second in a two part series called Failed Train Recordings. There are some very active railroad tracks near Prarie Du Chien, Wisconsin which I wanted to record a train going by. I set up next to the tracks at Wyalusing Beach and waited for a train. There was one that could be heard to the south but it seemed to be stopped so all I got was the distant train horn and some other sounds of the area. After waiting for about an hour we drove south and found the train moving north a few miles down the line. Bad timing!
