Viewing Album:  Rail-Fanning 2019 Vol. 4
 
By:Matthew Schimmel
Dates:4/5/2019 - 4/28/2019
Album Info:April was a short month for me and with some flooding issues along the BNSF Hannibal Sub. I had to travel to see any trains. I took my normal pilgrimage to Decatur, IL to visit some friends during a train show weekend and still managed to catch a few on the Hannibal Sub. Thanks for taking a look through the photos!
