While in Council Bluffs, Linda and I cruised down the hill from the Dodge house to the old downtown district and took a little walk. We found one of Iowa's 101 Carnegie libraries, now serving as the Union Pacific Railroad Museum. Again, we didn't get to go inside but were able to appreciate the Beaux-Arts design, updated with a couple of railroad motifs. Free to the public, this museum is surely still on my list of places to visit.
