I don't know if you found out or not. The Canteen district is named for the North Platte Canteen. Which was the name of the Union Pacific train depot during WW2. At that time, as troops were being shipped across the country during the war, many of the North Platte locals went to the train depot and served the troops stopping off various foods and drinks. It ran for the entire length of the United States fight in WW2. Eventually, the depot was torn down in the 1970s.
My wife was born and raised there. Her Sisters are still there, My wife loves Runza but I never cared for it, But the best part of North Platte is Bailey Yard. It is the largest railroad yard in the world.
I moved here from Vegas. WTF am I doing here 😂 found me a girl in Vegas from north platte and 6 years later she convinced me to move here so she could be closer to her family ☠️

My old stomping grounds as a kid from '75-'78. I would love to go back there again. Haven't been there since '96.

My uncle lived here. Went to his funeral in 1978. Never came back ever again.
Was in this area back in the 90's as a truck driver. It was the coldest I have ever been in my life. The people were friendly and very nice though.
Great video, but how did you miss going into the barn...fascinating inside. Maybe next time.
