Ron, I'm in Kearney. Are you close?
Not really. I'm in the town of Elkhorn (or was until Omaha annexed us). You're probably lucky I'm not as I'd be getting drool all over those nice tools.

I have friends in Kearney! Nice town, except for the 3am freight train that insists on sounding its horn. Scared the hell out of me as I thought it was the twister alarm going off. Still have the local ice hockey shirt too.
Funny. I grew up living just a couple of blocks from a rail crossing (town was only a few blocks big) and to this day I don't really notice the train whistles. I smashed a lot of pennies on the tracks though and have some sections of rail I'm using as anvils.
