A Nebraska "Tracks with no Trains"
Author: BairdDispatcher

This line has been out of service for a long time obviously. Part of the original UP mainline before the Lane Cutoff was built. Complete with 85 lb. 1913 jointed rail still in place.

Looks like a stretch of that track that sill remains down near Harrison & I-80

Hmmm, looks heavier than 85 pound rail.

Pic is directly east of where the BNSF Omaha Line goes over the old UP original mainline, located maybe a mile or so east of I-80. I went there scouting out BNSF photo spots and stumbled upon this one.
