Railroad Tools at Utah State Railroad Museum, ogden, utah

During our travels in the motorhome, we often visited family in Ogden, Utah.

During one late summer visit in 2014, we made a special stop at the museums connected with the historic Union Station near downtown Ogden. It was a great photo opportunity.

These photos were taken at the Utah State Railroad Museum located at the Station.
