 The event will take place Saturday,
October 5, 2019, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Mill, 738 S.
Washington St. in Lincoln. All are welcome to attend and/or to
register their car in the show. Registration is $5 per vehicle, and
attendance at the event is free. The event was originally scheduled
during the Railsplitting Festival, but has been moved to this
weekend because of the weather.
All members of the Railsplitter Antique Auto Club, other car clubs,
and the public are invited to this fun-filled family event. There
will be a 50/50 drawing and hot pizza served at the event.
In keeping with the decades-old tradition of music at The Mill,
there will be live music from 11:30am to 2:30pm from Sundown, a
great rock band from Armington. This will be the second Mill
performance for Sundown, a band that plays classic rock and original
music. The Railsplitter Antique
Auto Club has hosted the event for over a decade – during the entire
restoration process of The Mill Museum and beyond. This event has
raised over $3000 for The Mill over the years. Proceeds from the
event benefit both the Auto Club and The Mill.

The Mill Museum on 66 opened in April, 2017, and has
an extensive collection of items from The Mill, The Tropics, The Pig
Hip and additional Route 66 history from Lincoln and Logan County.
There is also a gift shop with t-shirts, women’s apparel, pottery,
postcards and more. The Railsplitter Antique Auto Club has been an
active organization in downtown Lincoln and hosts cruise-ins
throughout the spring, summer and fall, including the Shady Car Show
in late August.
They're always looking for new members, so come out
to the Mill and join up. This club brings a fantastic array of
antique autos for display.
