Railroad observation park located between the UP and BNSF railroads. A 3 foot guage Whitcomb locomotive is on display. This is a park provided by the city for railfans to watch the 100+ trains a day that pass through this area. There is also a railroad related Gift Shop, open 9 to 5 daily only closed on Monday and Tuesday. Coming soon to the Rochelle Railroad Park, a Whitcomb center cab Locomotive - Hall Printing #5, was donated to the City of Rochelle from the Wisconsin Southern Railroad. Locomotive is currently being repainted and readied for its new home at the Railroad Park.
