Welcome to Iowa 80 Trucking Museum - Walcott, Iowa
The City of Walcott may be a small rural community of 1,551 people as per the 2020 Census, but it definitely has a lot to offer those who are exploring Historic U.S. Route 6. All that is missing is a Route 6 Museum and Visitors Center.
Anyway, something to think about!

Welcome to Brooklyn, Iowa
aka
The Community of Flags
Thanks to Rusty Clayton, President of the Brooklyn True
Value Hardware Store, he was able to have this mural painted
on the side of his building with community financial
support. The painting was done in 2015 by local artist Scott
Hawkins. Historic Highway U.S. Route 6 passes right thru
downtown Brooklyn. Travelers from around the country come to
have their pictures taken beside the mural.
