Calwell Collection

The Heart of the Heartlands Museum was recently the recipient of an exceptional collection of railroad related items that had been collected over many years by Dave Calwell of Topeka, KS.  Dave was a career employee of the Santa Fe Railroad.  The members of the Heart of the Heartlands are very grateful that Dave chose our museum complex as the permanent home for his collection.  After about two and a half years of discussions, during which Dave documented and photographed each item as he packed them for the  move to the Heartlands Museum, the collection was transported by truck to our Carona, KS Museum Complex.
