New Kenefick Park dedicated in Omaha.
Posted by DrummingTrainfan on Saturday, October 15, 2005 11:52 AM
The new Kenefick Park (the old one had to be moved due to our new convention center/arena) was dedicated today. The Big Boy 6046 and the DD40X 6900 are set up on a hill that can be seen on I-80 right after crossing the Missouri River. Mr. Kenefick himself along with many U.P. "higher-ups" spoke at the dedication along with Nebraska governor Dave Heinamen (sp?). The park is open to employees only until 1 when the public is allowed to this sneak peak.

I'll try to get some pics in here as soon as I get them in to my picturetrail.
