Burlington Railroad Depot
The Burlington Railroad Depot in Nebraska City, also known as the Nebraska City Burlington Depot, and Nebraska City station is a historic train station listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The station dates to 1912 when it was built in Renaissance Revival style after a prior station proved insufficient for the city's passenger needs. The museum is slated to form part of the future Nebraska Railroad Museum, whose leaders plan to display a historic railcar in front of the building.

National Register Of Historic Places
The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the United States federal government's official list of districts, sites, buildings, structures and objects deemed worthy of preservation for their historical significance or "great artistic value". A property listed in the National Register, or located within a National Register Historic District, may qualify for tax incentives derived from the total value of expenses incurred in preserving the property. The passage of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) in 1966 established the National Register and the process for adding properties to it. Of the more than one and a half million properties on the National Register, 95,000 are listed individually. The remainder are contributing resources within historic districts. For most of its history, the National Register has been administered by the National Park Service (NPS), an agency within the U.S. Department of the Interior. Its goals are to help property owners and inte ...

Renaissance Revival
Renaissance Revival architecture (sometimes referred to as "Neo-Renaissance") is a group of 19th century architectural revival styles which were neither Greek Revival nor Gothic Revival but which instead drew inspiration from a wide range of classicizing Italian modes. Under the broad designation Renaissance architecture nineteenth-century architects and critics went beyond the architectural style which began in Florence and Central Italy in the early 15th century as an expression of Renaissance humanism; they also included styles that can be identified as Mannerist or Baroque. Self-applied style designations were rife in the mid- and later nineteenth century: "Neo-Renaissance" might be applied by contemporaries to structures that others called "Italianate", or when many French Baroque features are present (Second Empire). The divergent forms of Renaissance architecture in different parts of Europe, particularly in France and Italy, has added to the difficulty of defining an ...

Nebraska Railroad Museum
The Nebraska Railroad Museum interprets the story of the Fremont and Elkhorn Valley Railroad, whose tracks dated to 1869, and tells the story of railroading's continuing impact on America. Formerly located in Fremont, Nebraska, the museum will move to Nebraska City's Burlington Railroad Depot following the donation of eight acres and two thousand feet of track by BNSF Railway. In its prior incarnation, the museum consisted of a dinner train, a scenic loop that covered an 1869 route, museum space in Fremont's train depot, and significant items from the Fremont and Elkhorn Valley Railroad. While closed pending relocation, the museum inventoried their remaining collection and made the decision to sell some, including a Union Pacific DDA40X The EMD DDA40X is a 6,600 hp (4,943 kW) D-D locomotive, built by EMD from 1969 to 1971 exclusively for the Union Pacific Railroad. It is the most powerful diesel-electric locomotive model ever built on a single frame, having two 1 ...
