UNION PACIFIC IN WASHINGTON DC

Pulse of the Nation

Arriving visitors at Union Pacific Railroad’s recently renovated offices on Pennsylvania Avenue have a unique opportunity to appreciate the storied history of the company, which parallels the history of the United States dating back over 150 years.

To create that first impression, Bluewater Studio led a team that developed a series of vignettes in the main lobby incorporating historic artifacts from the extensive archives of the Union Pacific Railroad Museum. The displays feature historical themes including Presidents and the Rails, Safety on the Union Pacific, Passenger Rail Service, and the Union Pacific’s foundational history with our National Parks.

Supported with conservation-grade mounts, artifacts include a conductor’s uniform, china and tea service, children’s menu and service items, and safety lanterns, as well as a commemorative scarf featuring Abraham Lincoln.
