The now-under-construction Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library isn’t the only new attraction coming to this popular cowboy heritage town in the Little Missouri Badlands.
The new facilities are part of a strategic initiative by the foundation board that is looking ahead to a new era of tourism in Medora once the presidential library opens in July 2026.
Located just 50 minutes from Bloomington, the Monticello Railway Museum is home to over 100 pieces of railroad equipment including several restored trains and cars that operated in Illinois.
