DBOX 6634

Title:	DBOX 6634
Description:	DBOX 6634 is our last train of the day here in Gothenburg Nebraska. I would gladly do this again. There are a lot of trains that you can see on this US 30 corridor. (If anyone has a correction about this unit that would be greatly appreciated. It was so dark I couldn't tell model or number or even leasing co. very well. But I think it said DBOX 6634)

UP 1995 (Chicago and North Western heritage unit!!!)

Title:	UP 1995 (Chicago and North Western heritage unit!!!)
Description:	I noticed when it was coming up that this unit did not look quite like a regular UP unit! The CN&W heritage unit serves as DPU on the eastbound stack train outside of Paxton! We ended up chasing this unit about 2 miles because at first my picture was no good and the train was moving really fast so it took some time to catch back up to it! I am ver greatful that i caught this unit because I might never see a UP HU unit again. I am very happy with this catch!!!

BNSF 7233

Title:	BNSF 7233
Description:	BNSF 7233 leads a eastbound stack train under the bridge at Kansas City. This is the last train I will photograph before leaving to go to Chicago on the Southwest Chief. This Amtrak bridge is a really nice place to photograph trains. And hopefully I will be able to come back to this location one day. Good bye Kansas City!
