This
year's winner of the Professional Railsplit at the
Abraham Lincoln National Railsplitting Festival in
Lincoln was Jonathan Norin. Norin, joined by his
children, was presented a First Place Certificate by
Abraham Lincoln (aka Gary Simpkins) with Darius
Knauer looking on in the background.
This year the splitting event was held in front of
the Postville Courthouse on Fifth Street, with
plenty of shade for splitters and spectators.
