A Westbound empty coal drag crosses the Platte River at the small community of Linoma. The name Linoma comes from the fact that the community marks the half-way point between Lincoln and Omaha.

It protects the Platte River which is nutoriously shallow, usually never more than a few feet deep, usually less.
