Can you picture this? What if three popular Rt. 66 landmarks in Lincoln were suddenly combined into one? Well, it is going to happen soon. The Railsplitter Covered Wagon is being relocated from the green space on Business Loop 55 to the Welcome Garden downtown at the corner of Kickapoo and Pekin Streets. Along with that, the Lincoln Letters that are currently in the Mel-O-Cream parking lot are going to move to the garden.

The foundation has already been laid in the garden for the letters, and according to Brad Matthews of Matthews Construction, he will be spearheading the relocation of the wagon in the very near future.
