A few clouds hang in the sky as BNSF 1776 and BNSF 3336 cross the Niobrara River on Main 1 on the journey west on the Butte Sub on the east slope of Crawford Hill. The train is an Employee Appreciation Special, which BNSF runs from time to time. BNSF employees and their families were welcome to board the train in Alliance, NE for a trip over Crawford Hill.
