Note that this has the typical freight house design of a long one-story freight handling building with lots of doors and a two-story office building on the end.

It looks like the steamboat is part of the museum. It was a dredge for the USACE.

| Brian Allen posted Dubuque, Iowa 1981 BURLINGTON ROUTE Freight House Brian Allen photo Brian Allen shared Paul Schmidt: Worked around there around that time for BN track department. There was a station with an operator in Dubuque and a switch engine that also came across the river to East Dubuque area to work where we were most of the time. There had been a small CB&Q passenger station at East Dubuque still standing but it was closed after the demise of the Zephyr trains. Brian Allen shared |

The mainline of the CB&Q from Chicago went up the east side of the Mississippi River. But obviously they had trackage rights on the IC bridge to get to their CB&N route.

I need to add the River Museum to the list of the Dubuque Star Brewing Co., the shot tower and the bridges as some of the reasons to visit this town.
