Just a note that the signage at the monument has been changed.  The previous sign containing the passcode has been replaced by three new "storyboard" signs.

 

Fortunately, the passcode can be found on one of the new signs, but not in the position specified on the cache page.

 

On one of the signs, there are two side-by-side photos of a trestle.  The passcode is the year that the two photos were taken.

 

Happy caching!

What a neat place!  It is highly likely that we may never have stopped here if not for this cache.  I just wished that we had more time to do some extra local exploring.  Took quite a few pics before leaving----Thanks for bringing us here!

A nice spot to stop on a road trip accross I-80.  Saw a few antelope right next to the monument.  Seems Lincoln is a favorite in this state, many monuments around with his likeness. Posting a photo soon.

I would have liked to been around when the railroad was booming.  These information type caches are very enjoyable.  Thanks.
