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.

Union Pacific R.R. Cop and My Dad
Title:  Union Pacific R.R. Cop and My Dad
Description:  Well apparently they don't like it when you walk down a road by the yard to get a photo of a new locomovtive. The UP Officer showed up shortly after I walked down to photograph the new UP 5467. Nothing bad happened; he just took down our information and made sure we knew that where I was and were currently standing was technically railroad property. He was a really nice guy and told us some great stories of people he arrested for things worse than what we were doing. I just wish I could remember his name.
