Pioneer Village-Milden, NE



Hi All,

Still in Hastings. Shop still troubleshooting; new computer being installed as this is being typed.

The Pioneer Village has a huge collection that shows the evolution of American life from homestead days to the 1960's. The main museum building has 350 autos, 20 aircraft and a dizzying array of mechanical stuff.


This is a Sears Buggy from their 1909 catalog.



An exact, full scale replica of the Wright Flyer.

An ornate Gypsy Wagon from 1850. One of the original camping vehicles. Few survived since it was tradition to burn the wagon and contents when the owner died!

Antique outboard engines galore.

Not too old but neat, this is an amphibious car. Note the high exhaust pipe and dual propellers.
So much for the main building. The 27 other buildings will be in the next email.

Love,

Sandy & Carl
