When we came into Bucklin, there were combines harvesting the wheatfields outside of town. In town, we saw a couple of grain elevators near the railroad, pointing to Bucklin's origins as a key shipping town at the intersection of two railroads.
Main Street is a mix of businesses and vacant buildings. There's some cute tire art on the side of the road, a John Deere dealership, the Bucklin High School (go, Red Aces!), and lots of very small houses. We also found a 1936 auditorium and some very treacherous dips in the city roads. We think we escaped them with impunity.
