highlight of the Abraham Lincoln National Railplitting Festival in
Lincoln is the National Railsplitting competition. In spite of soggy
weather and wet logs, the contest was completed on Sunday afternoon.
This year the winner of the competition was a Logan County resident,

On
Saturday there were special visitors to the Mill on Route 66 Museum
and the Railsplitter Covered Wagon in Lincoln. The Canadian Corvette
Club is traveling Route 66 this fall and made a stop in Lincoln. The
group toured the Mill then on their way out of town made a stop at
the wagon. While at the wagon they gathered for a group photo to
commemorate the visit.
