There is a museum in Grand Island Ne called Stuhr Museum. It has a lot of old houses (including the house Henry Fonda was born in), a complete 1800s midwest frontier town with a working blacksmith shop, candy shop, saw mill, and others. They had a steam locomotive that would pull passenger cars to a different part of the museum (another small town across the park) but there was no stop there, just display only, then bring you back. I haven't been in 20 years, but I have heard that the locomotive broke down and there was no money to fix it. It is now display only. For anyone who is into the history of the settlement of the west, this is a must visit. I am currently waiting for my wife ankle to heal up and we are going. Possibly next summer, will depend on when we make it back up there. She has never been and I can't wait to go back.
