Now,  however, it appears the city is in the red, and the museum idea (which

Yepper,
 
When I think Wild West, it is not Tombstone or Dodge City that come right  to 
my mind - it's Harrisburg, PA!!!!!!
 
I am sad to hear of this as I wanted to walk where the Apaches rode, see  
where Beecher's Island really was and contemplate the Santa Fe Trail, all known  
sites within Pennsylvania.
 
In reality, I never understood the concept of such a museum being in the  
East at all.  The Civil War Museum makes sense and it is a fine museum -  but the 
Wild West???????????????
