North Platte was my home town, this old barn was the teenagers hangout in the 50's. We danced, sang, climbed around it like monkeys. No drugs just kids having fun. It was all closed up at that time. Gave me goosebumps seeing it again.

Love your travel videos. They allow me to see the majority of the country that I will most likely never see otherwise. As a native Kansan, I thought you might be interested to know that we call those large silos “grain elevators.” You should see the one in Hutchinson Kansas, it is a half mile long and there is even a longer one in Wichita. Enjoy your travels

I remember taking highway 30 across Nebraska back in the mid 60s. The interstate was still being worked on. Boy, did I get sick of those orange highway signs. We stayed at the Western Motel and Cafe in North Platte and shopped at Ft. Medina touristy trading post. And seeing Buffalo Bill's ranch. Thanks for bringing g back Golden memories.

Welcome To Nebraska. We are very proud of our heritage. My Grandmother use to work at Bill Codys ranch in the summer. She use to help feed and take care of the cowboys and soldiers that passed through on their way to various places. In fact there is a picture of her in one of the cabins she use to stay in. She also use to help with the children. She would take the train from Polk Nebraska to North Plate and someone would meet her with the buck board. Take her to the ranch to work till school time and she would leave. That is how she meet Mr Morgan. She worked out there from around the age of 12 till she married at the age of 17. We live in Polk CO. on the eastern part of the state. I am looking forward to going to Quartzsite this winter to visit. I hope you have a good time here in the Cornhusker state. I hope you come back soon. were a great place to see and travel in the spring and fall. till about Nov. Be safe in your travels.. I love watching your channel.. God Bless.

LOVE your Nebraska LINCOLN HWY. My husband grew up one block from Lincoln Hwy. We raised our family about 1/2 mile from Lincoln Hwy. There is a lot 15:34 of history in Nebraska. NEBRASKA IS NOT ALL FLAT. Go about 50 miles north from LINCOLN HWY and the hills are gorgeous. Along the Missouri River there are hills. The Niobrara River has much history also. Hwy 20 along the northern part is FULL of history. No one thinks to go beyond I-80. They miss soooo much. Tornadoes are mostly Spring time. August is a calm month.

This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen and I want to give you a special thanks for this wonderful trip documentary. Last year I went on an rv trip, leaving home(Oregon) for North Carolina. We got as far as Wyoming and was informed my mom had passed away so we had to book it to Missouri quickly and had to bypass all of our Nebraska sights we had planned. You covered a lot of them in this video which was great. I love to do exactly what you do, visiting small towns and taking in all the history. Love it! Have a special interest in trains and train depots - the train yard in North Platte is the largest in the country. Again thank you so so much for this video. Will be checking out others of yours and looking forward to the continuation of this one. Debbie

Hello Russ. I enjoyed watching your video of your trip on the Lincoln Highway in Nebraska. I have driven on that highway too in Nebraska. I just recently read a biography called the Song of Dewey Beard who was a Lakota Indian who was in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. He witnessed the Battle of the Little Big Horn and was a survivor of the Wounded Knee Massacre. He was the last Native American who was still alive to have been at those two events when he passed away in 1955. My Great, Great Grandparents on my dad's side had a sod home at Atkinson, Nebraska during the 1870's.

North Platte, Nebraska is known for the North Platte Canteen of World Word Ii. Volunteers from all over Nebraska brought food to serve the soldiers who were passing through by train. This continued throughout the war and became one of Nebraska's legends (along with Wild Bill Cody). With rations in place, Nebraskans donated food, automobile gasoline, time and travel to show American servicemen compassion. Please do some research and include this wonderful example of human compassion. (55,000 women participated) Side note: the North Platte rail yard is the largest in the world.

Put end-to-end, Bailey Yard’s reaches 315 miles.

It's always nice to go on a road trip and leave the driving to Russ! As you say, local museums are always worth a stop--they always have a bunch of interesting stuff on display. I've been through North Platte a couple of times and I have to say the most "too cool for school" thing is the miniature mechanical Buffalo Bill Wild West Show in the Fort Cody Trading Post. It has literally thousands of hand-carved figures that put on a show every half hour or so. Kearney is also home to the fantastic Great Platte River Road Archway. The "immersive" exhibits may seem a little dated by today's standards but they were state of the art when it opened.(maybe it's in the next video?) I guess you're on your way to Utah by now, I'm looking forward to see your adventures in the Beehive State. Until next time, happy trails!
