| UPRR Museum in Council Bluffs A railroad legacy spanning
more than 140 years is celebrated at the new Union Pacific Railroad
Museum, located in Council Bluffs. The Carnegie Museum in Council
Bluffs is the new location of the Union Pacific Railroad Museum
Collection that was last housed in the Western Heritage Museum (The
original Union Station) in Omaha. Volunteers Needed The museum needs volunteers to help out with reception, floor host duties, at the Gift Shop, research support and photo support. Those who participate are promised an equal amount of time accessing the collection on their own in exchange for the time volunteered. Since the inception of the UPHS, the Museum has supported us in so many ways and now is our chance to return the favor. Remember much of the material that is utilized in the Streamliner is obtained from this collection. Please try to help in this rewarding opportunity to not only help our UPHS endeavors but also that of the Carnegie Museum’s efforts. If you live in the Omaha area please contact Andi Hodge, Volunteer Coordinator, Carnegie Museum at 712-329-8307. |
