World's largest covered wagon

Lincoln, IL

Lincoln’s Railsplitter Covered Wagon was built by David Bentley and donated to the city in January 2007. The 25-foot-tall, 40-foot-long wagon carries an oversized seated Abraham Lincoln and remains a free Route 66 photo stop; its canvas cover is removed during winter and returned in spring.
