Dylan Widger
KCS 4859
We caught him at Ashland and again at Louisville but decided we would get one more of him going over the bridge at Plattsmouth.
Originally, Sam and I planned to set up shop at the crossing to the east of here and do a long telephoto with him coming down the hill. However, as we got to Plattsmouth, Jamison sent us the photo he got at Cullom where they kicked the nose door open on him. So, we decided to change plans and set up for the wide shot of him coming over the bridge.
Once we had gotten to Louisville, our group had grown to include Ryan, Oliver, and Paul, and once this guy was through, we set up and took a group photo on the bridge. The recent passing of a longtime Lincoln railfan made us realize the lack of photos we all have together, and we are making an effort to document our outings together to have forever. RIP Tom.
KCS ES44AC 4859 "Safety Starts Here" leads a grain empty eastbound on the Creston Subdivision as CP SD70ACU 7030 trails across the Missouri River outside Plattsmouth, Nebraska, April 8, 2023.
