| 1851 |  | Union Pacific #437 locomotive in Grand Island, Nebraska This Union Pacific Consolidaton 2-8-0 was built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in the year 1900. (2-8-0 refers to 2 leading wheels, 8 drive wheels, and 0 trailing wheels) It is on display in Grand Island. These workhorses of the early 20th century were the backbone of freight service across the Great Plains. As they were retired, many were donated to museums in towns across Nebraska, including Grand Island, Fairbury, Sidney, Kearney, Lexington, and North Platte. The likelihood that John Calvin Strahorn operated this exact locomotive on multiple occasions during the over two decades he and Sarah lived in North Platte is inescapable, because crews operating locomotives based in North Platte would typically travel west to Sidney or east to Grand Island, where their locomotives would be serviced at a roundhouse and refilled with coal and water. The locomotives would then pull a train back to North Platte, but not necessarily with the same crew. | ||

| 1853 |  | Union Station in Spokane From the Zentmyer Collection. Robert financed and built Union Station on a site between the Spokane River and Trent Ave., now called Spokane Falls Blvd., completing construction in 1914. When it was torn down to make way for the Spokane World's Fair in 1974, demolition crews got more than they bargained for. The building was constructed to last for centuries, requiring the contractor to repeatedly ask for more money. | ||

And while it's unlikely Robert Strayhorn was on this particular boat, he was certainly in the accompanying flotilla that night. | ||
