This video about things to see in North Platte, Nebraska, includes the world’s largest railroad classification yard, its famous WWII Canteen, construction of the 9-story-tall Golden Spike tower, and Buffalo Bill’s Scout’s Rest Ranch, long a Lincoln Highway attraction.
There is also that great tourist trap out by the interstate. Forget its name though, but it looks like a fort from the outside.
Fort Cody, one of my favorite stops on the Lincoln Highway! http://www.fortcody.com
Cool mix of stuff and super-nice owners. I wrote about their family’s “roadside empire” of similar attractions for the next American Road magazine.
