TLCTerp

After WW2 France sent boxcars loaded with gifts to each of 49 US States. The Kansas boxcar is located at the American Legion in Hays, KS. On the Hays Visitor Information website, we found a phone number to call if you wanted to see the boxcar. The gentleman who answered the phone told us to just call when we were about a hour out of town and he would meet us there. We did that and spent an hour with him learning the history of the merci boxcars in general and the history of the Kansas boxcar. The American Legion has turned the inside of this boxcar into a small museum and we were invited inside to take a look. We thoroughly enjoyed this...something you don't get to see every day and a slice of American history. It is free to 'tour' the boxcar, but donations are gladly accepted. Definitely something I would recommend!
