Paul Waldum, a native of Livingston, Montana, captures his experiences in wilderness - shaped by solitude, friendship, and reflection.

The historic Livingston Depot Center now functions as a railroad history museum and community cultural hub in downtown Livingston. The beautifully restored Northern Pacific Railroad station, dating back a century, is a remarkable exhibit in itself.  The Depot's flagship exhibit, "Rails Across the Rockies: A Century of People and Places," provides captivating insight into Montana's railroad history and the grandeur of train travel. Particularly focusing on the Northern Pacific's pivotal role in Yellowstone's establishment as America's first national park, the exhibit highlights Livingston as the gateway to Yellowstone since the 1880s. 

The Depot Museum is open Memorial Day to Labor Day, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and children 12 or younger. Group rates and tours are available upon request.
