Throwback Thursday: Burlington Northern Freedom Train

All aboard for this week’s #ThrowbackThursday!

This week, we have a 4″ x 4″ color photograph of the Freedom Train stopped in McCook, Nebraska in 1975.

This photograph is owned by the High Plains Historical Society and Museum. It is published by McCook Public Library. Images in this collection document early growth of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad in McCook and the surrounding area.

See all the materials in this collection on the Nebraska Memories archive!
