This was a spur of the moment trip before Chris went off to RIT in the Fall of '95. Started badly with the plane from Boston breaking its rubber band, then it's not real scenic between Scott's Bluff and Crawford so I thought the trip was going to be a bust. Not so, the Crawford Horseshoes are just awesome, and there was plenty of traffic. Lots of SD7OMAC's and enough older power to keep things interesting. Even saw the "Trough Train," which is just amazing.

Crawford Hill is one of those places that every rail fan needs to see in their lifetime. The scenery alone is awesome. This video is pre-BNSF days. Lots of coal trains conquer the hill. Pushers are as normal as breathing itself. Just an all around great video.
