Illinois Railway Museum


This picture was taken of a Union Pacific Locomotive at the Illinois Railway Museum located at Union, Illinois.
The Museum is the result of more than a half century of ardent and dedicated volunteers. These volunteers have assembled all the buildings, track, locomotives, and cars on this land that use to be farmland.
I think it would be so neat if the Train made a comeback. Maybe with Buffett's help they can.

  3. This sounds like a great place. I have nephews that belong to a model train club in Col. Springs. I'll have to tell my brother about this place. They would love it!
