This week’s #ThrowbackThursday is taking a look at the 1908 train wreck that happened in Red Cloud, Nebraska.
Both of these images are published by the McCook Public Library and owned by the High Plains Historical Society and Museum. Together, in partnership, they digitized images that document early growth of the railroad in McCook and the surrounding area.
