Imagine standing on a piece of history so grand it once carried the weight of an entire community's progress.

Our visit unveiled its 19th-century engineering marvel and the captivating stories whispered by a local, making this unassuming structure a vibrant link to the past and a vital part of the region's identity.

Often, when Linda and I are out enjoying a drive through Indiana’s scenic backroads, we come across a local winery we’ve never visited before. More often than not, we’ll stop in to check it out. Usually, the entrance to a tasting room is pretty standard—but every now and then, we’re met with a surprise before we even get through the door. That was the case with The Drunk Tank Winery, located in Rockville, Indiana.

The Majestic Tulip Trestle: Standing Tall

Have you ever seen a structure so grand it takes your breath away? For many years, I’ve known about an amazing landmark nestled in the rolling hills of southern Indiana, near the charming towns of Solsberry and Tulip. There stands the majestic Tulip Trestle, a towering railroad bridge. Officially called Bridge X76-6 (though some records say X75-6), and also known as the Greene County Viaduct or Tulip Viaduct, this bridge is more than just a way for trains to cross a valley. It's a piece of history, an incredible feat of engineering, and a landmark that continues to impress.
