This gallery traces the dynamic evolution of travel in Fayetteville and Lincoln County over the past two centuries, capturing the machinery and infrastructure that kept the community in motion. The collection documents the transformative era of the railroads that first connected local commerce to the nation, followed by the expansion of paved roadways that paved the way for the trucking industry and interstate bus lines.
