Santa Fe Railway Collection – HURLEY MAIN COLLECTION L. M. “Mike” Hurley had 44 years with the Santa Fe Railroad. After his retirement, he served as the Assistant Director of the Harvey County Historical Museum (HCHM) and was instrumental in gathering the Santa Fe Railway Collection for the Harvey County Historical Society. At his death in January, 2001 his pictures, paper collectibles, railroad books and railroad memorabilia came to the museum per his wishes. Mike enjoyed sharing his knowledge about the Santa Fe. Hurley provided Jane Jones (HCHM Archivist) with descriptions and explanations of the vast amount of material that was sorted. Mike's wife Shirley helped him catalog his own collection. His lasting railway legacy was the book he authored, “Newton Kansas #1 Santa Fe Rail Hub 1871-1971.” L. M.

  • Union Depot Tower Interlocking Plant

    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.

Chronology It is proposed that the following entries in bold be added to the chronology section: 2005 AD 2005 AD Stabilized Targeted portions of loose stucco on the Powerhouse were repaired and conserved, or replaced. 2005 AD 2005 AD Stabilized Broken or missing terra cotta roof tiles were replaced or repaired as necessary on the Scotty’s Castle Main House, Annex, and Guest House. 2005 AD 2005 AD Stabilized The Romanesque columns that support the entry porch on the south side of the Chimes Tower were stabilized. 2010 AD 2010 AD Rehabilitated The Cookhouse was rehabilitated. The building was damaged in 1991 due to a fire. As a result of the rehabilitation, the building has the same footprint, massing, roof pitches/lines and exterior appearance as the original structure. 2. Stabilization Description It is proposed that the existing stabilization measures and stabilization cost explanatory be removed from the database in order to provide more up-to-date information in the future. See proposed stabilization measures description in the box below. Existing Stabilization Measures Description: Assess root damage to the watercourse structure. Remove vegetation causing damage. Existing Stabilization Cost Explanatory Narrative: The structural integrity of the watercourse must be assessed by park staff. The evaluation should determine where the vegetation is damaging the structure. Tasks should be determined, the number of crew to complete the job, and budget. Buildings have not yet been assessed for stabilization measures or costs (An historic structures report is currently in draft).
  • ATSF Furniture Car 7176

    ATSF Furniture Car 7176

    ATSF Furniture Car 7176 This piece of Oklahoma Railway Museum’s rolling stock has had an interesting history. It was originally built in 1928 by the General American Transportation Corporation for the ATSF (Santa Fe) Railroad. It was constructed as a double-door, 50-foot, Class Fe-S (furniture car) with a wooden body, steel underframe and ends. In 1941, the car was modified into a Class Fe-22 by the Santa Fe Railroad in their shops at Topeka, Kansas. This rebuild utilized the frame, trucks and some other parts of the original car. However, the wood sides were replaced with steel and one-inch thick interior wood lining. It was rated with a capacity of 50 tons loaded in 4927 cubic feet of interior space. Although listed by Santa Fe as a furniture car, it was set up to haul trucks, automobiles, farm equipment and heavy machinery. Hence, at the ORM, it is often referred to as an auto boxcar. The car was equipped with tie-down chains in floor, mounted storage tubes and other interior components to load and secure the vehicles. Another unique aspect of the rebuild was the opening end doors which provided full- width access to the inside of the car for easy loading. The auto boxcar was painted in what was called the “Map Scheme.” As it sounds, it had a large straight-line Santa Fe system map on one side of the boxcar. The slogan of one of Santa Fe’s crack passenger trains was painted on the other side: in the case of this car, “The Route of El Capitan, Only All Coach Chicago-Los Angeles Streamliner.” The as-built paint colors were a mineral brown body and ends, black roof and underbody, with white lettering.
