  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

  • Union Depot Tower Interlocking Plant
    Union Depot Tower Union Depot Tower (U.D. Tower) was completed in 1914 as part of a municipal project to improve rail transportation through Joliet, which included track elevation of all four railroad lines that went through downtown Joliet and the construction of a new passenger station to consolidate the four existing passenger stations into one. A result of this overall project was the above-grade intersection of 4 north-south lines with 4 east-west lines. The crossing of these rail lines required sixteen track diamonds. A diamond is a fixed intersection between two tracks. The purpose of UD Tower was to ensure and coordinate the safe and timely movement of trains through this critical intersection of east-west and north-south rail travel. UD Tower housed the mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection, also known as an interlocking plant. Interlocking Plant Interlocking plants consisted of the signaling appliances and tracks at the intersections of major rail lines that required a method of control to prevent collisions and provide for the efficient movement of trains. Most interlocking plants had elevated structures that housed mechanisms for controlling the various rail switches at the intersection. Union Depot Tower is such an elevated structure. Source: Museum of the American Railroad Frisco Texas CSX Train 1513 moves east through the interlocking. July 25, 1997. Photo courtesy of Tim Frey Ownership of Union Depot Tower Upon the completion of Union Depot Tower in 1914, U.D. Tower was owned and operated by the four rail companies with lines that came through downtown Joliet.

  • Page 1 of 10 Request for Qualifications/Proposals Public Art
    Page 1 of 10 Request for Qualifications/Proposals Public Art Master Plan – Moline, IL September 10, 2019 Summary: The City of Moline (City), in partnership with Renew Moline, a 501(C)(3) non-profit economic development entity (Renew), is soliciting qualifications and proposals for the development of a Public Art Master Plan. The partners intend to develop a Public Art Master Plan for the downtown Moline area to enhance the urban experience and provide an attractive environment for new development. Background: With a population of approximately 45,000, Moline is the largest city in Rock Island County, Illinois. It is one of the Quad Cities, four mid-sized midwestern cities that straddle the Mississippi River, 165 miles west of Chicago. With its neighboring cities of Bettendorf, Iowa; Davenport, Iowa and Rock Island, Illinois, the area population is almost 400,000, the largest urban area between Minneapolis and St. Louis. Moline’s local economy has a strong corporate presence, including John Deere and KONE, Inc. A recent two-phase, $48 million expansion of Western Illinois University has added a new state university campus to the downtown riverfront. Nearby, IH Mississippi Valley Credit Union construction of its $26m headquarters is scheduled for completion this fall. Downtown hosts the John Deere Pavilion, a visitor and discovery center; as well as a number of national chain hotels and commercial developments. A portion of downtown Moline is a National Register Historic District. The Rock Island Arsenal, home of the First Army Headquarters, employs approximately 6,000 individuals on a 950-acre island immediately adjacent to downtown Moline.
