UP's Big Boy - Omaha/Council Bluff overlook
Video was taken April 12, 2010 onsite by Larry Christy with lousy camera :). Located in Lauritzen Gardens by the Omaha's Botanical Center. Kenefick Park. Big Boy 4023 and Centennial 6900. Both the largest and most powerful steam and electric engines made. It was quite windy so sorry about the wind noise. :(

Visit the Union Pacific Railroad Museum to experience “Building America”, an immersive exhibit featuring video-game technology; relive the height of passenger rail travel; and learn how Union Pacific and America’s progress have been inextricably linked. Housed in the former 1902 Carnegie Library, this museum is home to one of the oldest corporate collections in the nation and includes artifacts, photographs and documents that trace the development of the transcontinental railroad and the American West.
Union Pacific Railroad Museum
After the zoo, Nick made a side-trip across the river to Council Bluffs, Iowa to visit the Union Pacific Railroad Museum. It rents space inside a building owned by the Council Bluffs library. Although a non-profit, the UP Railroad donates a lot of funds and resources to keep it up to date. Donations from visitors help make up the rest of the museum's funding. It is run by an all volunteer staff. Well worth the visit!

Union Pacific manifest at 667th Avenue, Story County, Iowa
Friday, June 13, 2014, 1:48 PM. Rick and I had been staking out Devil's Hollow where Union Pacific's Spine Line crosses under the main line east of Nevada, Iowa, but I got bored just a little too soon to catch this mixed freight that we ended up almost missing at the 667th Avenue crossing. At the end of the video, you can see it about to meet the eastbound stack train, which you can watch in the next video.
Great Train Expo Council Bluffs, Iowa
This is a video from the Great Train Expo Held at the Mid America Convention Center on January 30 2010. Two model trains pass each other, both O scale Lionels. One is a Harley Davidson train and the other is a Union Pacific Big Boy. Warning: This is a very noisy video, there were people talking, music going on in the background, and the trains themselves were built to make the appropriate sounds. If you look closely, you can see the Big Boy smoking. Overall, a very fun time.

Drone Tracking Union Pacific Train North of Council Bluffs, Iowa
With sunset just a few minutes away, A Union Pacific Freight train is ten miles North of Council Bluffs, Iowa as it accelerates northward up the Missouri River Valley and begins it's nocturnal journey across the state of Iowa en route to Chicago, Illinois. This rail line was originally built by the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad as a link between Chicago and Council Bluffs, Iowa, which was just across the Missouri River from Omaha, where the Union Pacific began it's transcontinental route to the West Coast, which was the first of many rail routes that would be built in the years following it's completion.
