Each rider rode 75 miles and changed horses every 10 miles along the way. The Pony Express trail from St. Joseph led west and cut through the northeast corner of Kansas where nations only original unaltered Pony Express Station is now a state historic site two miles northeast of Hanover. Known as the Hollcnberg Pony Express Station, the building was constructed in 1857 and now contains a small pioneer museum. After leaving Kansas at the Hollen-berstation, the trail leads through Nebraska to a Pony Express station which is still visable at Fairbury, Neb. The trail then went through Ft. Kearney and followed the Platte River (on roughly what is now Interstate 80) through Nebraska. A Pony Express station also still stands at Gothenburg, Neb. on the Platte River. At a point, then called Cold Spring, where the Platte River divides (near North Platte, Neb.) the trail followed the South Platte River and dipped briefly down into Colorado. There were only two stations in Colorado, one called the South Platte and one at Julesburg. At Julesburg the trail followed the Lodgepole Creek northwest back up into Nebraska as far as Budney then drifted north to the North Platte River and followed it west into Wyoming to Ft. Laramie. The trail then ran across country down to Ft. Bridger (west of Rock Springs, Wyo.) and into Utah to Salt Lake City. The Salt Lake City Pony Express station once stood at what is now 150 So. Main Street. From Salt Lake City the trail led Riders southwest through Dugway. Salt Lake of at horses west City changed points then called Travelers Rock, Rock Wells, Crittenden Pass, Pt.

After leaving Yanks the Pony Boys g participate the statewide of in meetings to July 9, evening discuss Utah's future in a period ol rapid All changed horses at Strawberry, Webster's, Moss, Sportsmens Hell, Placer-ville- , Folsom, Mills, and at long last, arrived in Sacramento. Even though the privately financed service, the Central Overland California and Pike's Peak Express Co,, lost money every day it ran, the Pony Express was the first fast continental mail service across what was then called the Great American Desert. Introduction of the telegraph made the express instantly obsolete. The last pony rider galloped out of St. Joseph only two days after the wire linkup was completed. The service ended Oct. 24, 1861. Though the Pony Express lasted little more than a year, it made one of the most lasting impressions of American history. One Fillmore establishment has also saluted the Pony Express riders by naming their dining room The Pony Express Inn and decorating it with memorabilia from that era. It w ill be interesting to see if the 1980 Pony Boys beat the 1861 record. Their predecessors' greatest hazard was hostile Indians which their modern-dacounterparts will not have to face. Although the early day Pony Boys braved hunger, wild animals, scorching and mountain plains, passes, the 1980 Pony Boys will face fenced land, barking dogs, city streets, and speeding cars and trucks.
