Step inside what some researchers think is an original 1860 Pony Express Station from the old cross-state mail route, one of just a few still in existence. The engaging array of artifacts includes a mochila, the rider’s mail-holding saddlebag. It's near I-80 exit 211 in the charming town of Gothenburg. The historic old Lincoln Highway (US 30) passes close by.
