Bill Don't believe everything you hear..710 is fine and in it's original location, but moved just a few feet further north and has recently been "spruced up" a bit..The Depot..now known as LINCOLN STATION is also alive and well although surounded completely with NON railroad stuff..If you did not know that there once was a railroad facility at that location you would never guess it from how it looks now. The old platform overhead roofs have been saved and replaced and the area is referred to as CANOPY STREET. Pete

Gene told me last fall that the U of Nebraska was planning to demolish it for a sports complex.
Larry saw something on Facebook about it, but I can not find it.
Has this happened yet ?
Where will the steam locomotive be relocated to ?
Thanks in advance,
CB&Q Bill
