Everyone please check out the Company Store — Under the tab for “Books & Magazines” there is now an area called “Used Books”.  Generous donations of books by members and member estates have made some classic old books available for sale.  Many are very rare and in good to excellent condition.   These books are not limited to Union Pacific Railroad either as many railroads are represented in different eras.   About 40 books are listed now and as time allows the list will expand.  The prices are very good and shipping is added at the time of purchase.   Purchases here will help support UPHS goals and projects with making more historical information available online.

uphs-logoUPHS Archives at the American Heritage Center of the University of Wyoming – The American Heritage Center is developing a digital library of the images and diagrams in the UPHS Collection at AHC. This is a long-term, gradual process; only a fraction of our images are digitized at this point. A long-run goal is to develop an indexed, searchable digital library of small scans of our images for the benefit of our membership and others. Some of the completed small scans have been posted on-line by AHC. You can take a look at https://digitalcollections.uwyo.edu/luna/servlet/uwydbuwy~107~107.
