On Saturday morning, the Lincoln/Logan
County Chamber of Commerce and Chamber
Ambassadors joined members of the Logan
County Railsplitting Association for a
ribbon cut celebrating the opening of
the 2017 Abraham Lincoln National
Railsplitting Festival. This is the
second year for the festival to be held
on the lawn of the historic Postville
Courthouse, as well as Postville Park,
the Cronin Brother's VFW, and the Mill
on 66 Museum.
On
Sunday afternoon the Abraham Lincoln
National Railsplitting Festival came to
a close with the National Railsplitting
Competition. This year's winners were
Chris Freidlein, first place; Jonathon
Norin, second place; Cody Freidlein,
third place; and Evan Coombs, fourth
place. Chris has won the local
competition many times in the past, and
during the competition wore a t-shirt
touting that he won in 1983, 1988, 1994,
1995, 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007,
2012, 2013; and now he can add 2017.
