Union Pacific Railroad museum was a great find for a day outing in Council Bluffs. The staff was great and the exhibits especially the train simulator was fantastic for the young one.

This is for sure the place to go if your looking for a good family activity.
The interactive train exhibits are fun, along with the history you learn.
The gift shift is a bit small, but then again the museum is the main focus.
It would appear they change things around from time to time. This is for sure a good time especially if your always curious about the workings of a train.

The content in this museum is really good but slightly disappointed for a railroad Museum not to have any engines. But there are lots of interesting things on show in an amazing building which was originally a library. Shop was very disappointing felt that they could have offered more and also nowhere to get a drink or smack.

We stopped here with our 2 boys (ages 13 & 10). So much to see, hands on exhibits and activities. The boys had fun exploring all of the areas of the museum. Says free, but they ask for a suggested donation of $5 per adult and $3 for kids.

This is one of the best railroad museums that we have visited. It is well laid out with activities for kids.

We were visiting an attraction nearby and decided to take this one in too. There was something for everyone here--interactive displays for kids, lots of memorabilia for the train buffs, and interesting information on the luxury trains of the past. There are two floors (and an elevator for those who want to use it) to explore. Videos and written material help you learn more about railroading history. This was a great place to visit and I would recommend it to all. Donations are collected as you walk in the door.

This museum is in one of the old Carnegie libraries. It is well organized and worth an hour of your time. Kids will love it. There are many interactive exhibits, and the history of the railroads is succinct and fun to read. There are real dining and sleeper cars and a replica of the car Abraham Lincoln had built to travel in while in office, complete with some of his personal effects, it was killed before being able to use it. The top floor of the museum is more educational about modern train technology. There are several guides available to answer any questions or to tell you fun facts.

We made a slight detour to stop here as they were open. My husband loved it but I was less impressed. Not enough hands on for me and not many exhibits. Felt it lacking something (or I was just tired). Would be great rainy day activity. Housed in the old library, the architecture is impressive. Only open Thur-Sat though

The Union Pacific Museum is a must-see when traveling through Council Bluffs. First, it is in a beautiful, historic building, an old Carnegie public library. They've done a wonderful job of restoring the building and transforming it into a top notch museum. The UPRM includes many interactive exhibits on railroading, from western expansion, to passenger service, through modern freight hauling, with plenty to keep young minds interested. There are also several photo opportunities to make lasting memories.
Don't forget the museum store, plus the Squirrel Cage Jail is right next door.

How much time should I allow to see most of what the museum has to offer.

1-3 hours, could be more if you like to do lots of reading.
I think Grace may be confusing this museum with the Durham in Omaha, it's the one with the soda fountain.
Also if you are going to see this museum in Council Bluffs anyway, you may want to walk over to the Squirrel Cage museum. It is pretty unique and very close.
