| On our way to Kansas City to spend the night, I discovered this Missouri & Northern Arkansas SD45 in the yard in Nevada, MO. This was my first M&NA locomotive. |
 |
| Upon arriving in Kansas City (KC), we headed to Union Station to check out the parking and where we would need to be the next morning to catch our train to St. Louis and our trip on the Cimarron River behind an Amtrak train back to KC. The view to the right is of the concorse area where one once used to reach the entrance to the stairs to trackside. Below atr pictures of the lobby area of the station. |  |

| The west end of the lobby is the entrance to the National Geographic exhibit on Pirates. Both ends of the lobby have canon on the area below the windows and pirates handing on a roof from that area. |  |
| This display is in a window down the hallway to the Amtrak ticket office. |
 |
| This sign for the Kansas CIty Zephyris on the opposite wall from the display window. |  |
| This painting showing locomotives of the railroads that served Union Station is above the steps to the lower level of the station at the west end. |
 |
| We then explored the parking garage and discovered these cars at the track level of Union Station. |

 |
| This KCS unit is also on display at Union Station along with the passenger cars. |  |
| As we left the Union Station area, I took these images of the front of the station. |
