点评:I travel a lot, and always enjoy checking out small town historical museums. Usually find the typical assortment of artifacts, antiques, things from the early days of the town, on shelves or display cases. This one surprised me greatly. VERY professionally done displays. Within the main museum, there is a complete stage coach from the Butterfield Overland Despatch line, one of the first in the area (pre-wells fargo), a large number of antique pump organs, and other large items, but a lot of the displays were set up as shallow store fronts replicating the old fort and town, with the appropriate items within. Print shop, post surgeon's office, enlisted quarters, post office, etc., all with displays easily seen within them. Then there's the original stage post, train depot, a carriage house with conestoga wagon and chuckwagon in great shape, set up to cross the prairie, old fire engines, carriages, etc., and then a small historic church. All very nicely put together, and well worth the stop. I'm really glad I left early today and had time to make this unplanned stop!
翻译:我经常旅行,总是喜欢参观小镇的历史博物馆。通常会在架子或陈列柜上找到典型的文物、古董、小镇早期的物品。这个让我大吃一惊。非常专业的展示。在主博物馆内,有一辆完整的巴特菲尔德陆上快运线驿马车,这是该地区最早的驿马车之一(富国银行之前),还有大量的古董风琴和其他大型物品,但很多展品都是浅浅的店面,复制了旧堡垒和城镇,里面放着相应的物品。印刷店、邮局外科医生办公室、士兵宿舍、邮局等,所有这些都有明显的展示。然后是原始的驿站、火车站、马车房,里面有状况良好的康尼斯托加马车和炊事车,准备穿越草原,还有旧消防车、马车等,然后是一座小型历史教堂。一切都布置得非常漂亮,值得停下来看看。我真的很高兴今天早点出发并有时间做这个计划外的停留!
