Preserving the Stories of Jackson CountyHistory isn’t just in books; it’s in the whistle of a narrow-gauge train and the shared stories of a community. At the Jackson County Historical Society, we bring the past to life. Whether you’re joining us for our lively weekly Brown Bag Lunches to swap stories with neighbors or exploring the Iowa Orphan Train Research Center, we are the keepers of our region’s unique legacy.
Come visit the last remaining narrow-gauge railroad depot in Iowa and step aboard our replica combination car—a tribute to the high-energy era of the Bellevue/Cascade Railroad. We don’t just archive history; we invite you to be a part of it.
