Throughout the weekend at the National Railsplitter Festival in Lincoln, visitors had the opportunity to step back into the past and get a taste of what life would have been like in the days of Abraham Lincoln prior to his presidency.

 

 


As folks walked about the grounds of the Postville Courthouse, they had the opportunity to view various “camps” that illustrated such things as lard rendering, blacksmithing and quilting.

The courthouse was also open and guests had the opportunity to tour and view the information provided about our local history.

  
 

 

 

 

In addition, the local boy scouts were selling popcorn, Christian Village was hosting a bake sale, and food trucks were available.
