Nice looking car. Sure wish we had it at our museum. In fact, I wish we had ANY stock car at our museum!

I visited this museum last year. I agree, nice car. They also have a CB&Q caboose that is in nice shape, a BAP caboose that needs restoration and a coach of unkown heritage. Currently the coach is on blocks with a tarp over the roof. I saw no signs of trucks (they could be elsewhere). The museum also has a restored CB&Q depot that originaly in Grass Lodge, MT.

The rest of the grounds is a collection of restored (and I mean restored) buildings collected from around the area. They also have a collection of old vehicles (most not restored).

There is a very nice and clean visitors center at the museum.

The town of Hardin also has its depot intact and was is the process of being converted to a chamber of commerce building.
