A Golden Arrow Lines excursion on the Central Wisconsin Railroad Company route between Waukesha and North Prairie is rumbling through Genesee Depot, Wisconsin, on August 4, 1984. Next to the tracks is a rare Milwaukee-built Excalibur automobile styled after the 1928 Mercedes-Benz SSK by Brooks Stevens, originally for Studebaker. These hand-built luxury cars were produced for over twenty years, with only 3,200 built. The passenger train is operating on a line that will become part of Wisconsin and Calumet (WICT) the next year, and will later be part of the Wisconsin and Southern system. Atlantic Coast Line E3 No. 501 was owned by the late Glenn Monhart. Today, the locomotive is home again, owned by the North Carolina Dept. of Transportation Rail Division, and is on long term loan to the North Carolina Transportation Museum, in Spencer.
