Myron, I guess Omaha should feel complimented that you were in KC and
thought you were in Omaha!
Amtrak constructed a small depot a short distance to the east of Omaha's
Burlington Depot and moved over to that structure about two decades ago.
They cited 'high operating costs' in the old building as part of their
reason for doing this. Since then, there have been a couple of
unsuccessful attempts to redevelop the old Burlington building, but the
structure has been vacant for at least the past 5 years.
