The prototype of Walthers Union Station is actually Omaha's Burlington Station which opened in the early 20th Century but went through an extensive remodeling in a joint effort with the building of the final Omaha Union Station. The two stations were joined by the over the track concourse and were completed in 1930. Happily, both stations have been repurposed and are in use today.
