Album Info:For my college sophomore year spring break my father and I took a trip to Nebraska to rail fan. Mainly to rail fan North Platte, we hit other towns along the way. Most of my photos are roster shots, I also caught some un-patched SP units. Also ran into a UPRR Police Officer after a small incident. It was a great trip with my dad and we still laugh about it. All photos were taken with a Sony Mavica floppy disk camera so the quality isn't the greatest but some of the shots are still my favorites. Hope you all like the photos.
