  • 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.

  • Denver Union Station Awarded LEED Certification Transit Hub Awarded Green Honor for Major 2014 Renovation
    Denver Union Station awarded LEED certification Transit hub awarded green honor for major 2014 renovation DENVER - (July 25, 2016) – Denver Union Station is pleased to announce that it has been awarded LEED Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Denver Union Station has become downtown Denver’s hottest gathering place since it reopened in July 2014 after a $54 million renovation, with a major goal of making the multi-use transportation hub as environmentally friendly as possible. Several local Colorado companies were involved in the historic building’s rejuvenation, including Larimer Associates, McWhinney, REGen, LLC, Sage Hospitality and Urban Neighborhoods. Originally opened in 1891, Denver Union Station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Denver Union Station was awarded LEED points for implementing a variety of green initiatives, including: • Development density & community connectivity • Building reuse - more than 90% of the historic building’s existing structural elements were reused, including the original floors, walls & roof • Providing easy access to public transportation, including RTD’s new University of Colorado A Line to Denver International Airport and B Line to Westminster • Diverting more than 50% of construction waste from landfills. • Using low-emitting paints and flooring materials in the renovation • Regionally manufactured materials were used whenever possible • Asbestos contamination in the building was remediated Denver Union Station is home the 112-room luxury independent Crawford Hotel and 12 Colorado restaurants and retailers. A sampling of their green initiatives: • Stoic & Genuine uses the Environmental Defense Fund Seafood Charts as a guideline when ordering sustainable fish and more than 90% of its oysters are ocean–farmed • Next Door Union Station sources local produce from Colorado farmers, ranchers and other purveyors and is Zero Waste, composting all food scraps from tables and excess food from its kitchen • PigTrain Coffee Co.
