Omaha Union Station, also referred to as "Union Passenger Terminal", was finished on 1-15-1931. Carl R. Gray, UP President, declared the station to be, "Dedicated by the railways of Omaha to serve, comfort and convenience of the people."
It was served by 7 railroads, and the adjacent, connected Burlington Station made 8 in Omaha.
CNW stopped running passenger trains into Omaha Union Station in 1956. The Wabash stopped in 1960, the Mo-Pac left in 1965 along with the CGW. The Rock pulled out in 1969, and the UP in 1971 with the inception of Amtrak. The structure was donated to the City of Omaha by UP in 1973 and became home to the Durham Museum that year.
