Kewanee (Amtrak station)

The Kewanee Amtrak station is a train station in Kewanee, Illinois, United States served by Amtrak, the national railroad passenger system. A new station opened on April 13, 2012, replacing a smaller brick structure built in 1986. In addition to the waiting room, the depot houses a regional office of the Henry County Tourism Bureau.〔(Great American Stations ). Accessed March 27, 2013.〕
Designed by the Peoria-based Farnsworth Group, the new $485,000 station has a sloping roof and great wall of glass. The primary decoration is a large neon sign, placed high on the waiting room wall, that spells out "KEWANEE."〔(Great American Stations ). Accessed March 27, 2013.〕 In 2009, town officials set aside $300,000 in capital funds for the project; additional funds came from the city's economic development fund. The city later applied for two state grants to help cover approximately half of the depot’s cost. $163,000 was gained through "Illinois Jobs Now!", a six-year, $31 billion statewide capital program supported by 20 year state bonds and federal and local matching funds. An additional $75,000 came through a state grant obtained by State Senator Darin LaHood and State Representative Don Moffitt.〔(Great American Stations ). Accessed March 27, 2013.〕
==Trails & Rails and APRHF Rail Rangers program==
Between May 18, 2013 and July 19, 2015, volunteer rangers with the National Park Service provided commentary for train passengers between Chicago, Illinois and La Plata, Missouri on Amtrak's ''Southwest Chief'', including through Kewanee. This (Trails & Rails ) program was a partnership between Amtrak, the National Park Service, Texas A&M University, and the American Passenger Rail Heritage Foundation (APRHF) in La Plata, Missouri. Volunteers were on board for two round-trips per week during the busy summer and winter holiday travel periods. Despite volunteers no longer being on the train, the reference manual used by Trails & Rails volunteers is still available for passengers at (Outside The Rails ). After the National Park Service ended its partnership with the APRHF in July 2015, the APRHF launched its (Rail Rangers ) program, which continues to provide a similar service on private railroad car excursions across the Midwestern United States, including through Kewanee on the BNSF line.
