The Setting
St. Louis Union Station is a 125 year old train station that served as the key hub of transportation as early Americans ventured from the East to the booming West. This site and the surrounding city has a deep history in American society, culture, and transportation. Elements of this historical significance and train station themed elements can be found throughout the aquarium, including within Moondog’s digital exhibits
