Stagecoach Built
By Medford Man
To Be in Parade
Rogue valley residents and
visitors, will have the oppor
tunity to see a bright red

the replica of a Concord coach
in his shop at 1158 Court st.
In order to have the coach
as authentic as possible,' he
sent to the Smithsonian Insti

plans. He also made a trip to
the Siskiyou county museum
in Yreka toN study the stage
coach on display there. Three
months in the making, it is
exactly like the Concord
coach in the Wells Fargo mu
seum room in San Francisco.
The Jacksonville city coun

chise to operate the coach in
Jacksonville this summer giv
ing tours of that historic area
His regular schedule will start
about June 1, and last through
the Labor Day week end.
In 1960, McUne built his
own covered wagon and went
on. a tour of Washington, Ida
ho, and parts of Canada
In the summer of 1959, he
was a member of the On To
Oregon Cavalcade, the group
which made the wagon tram
trek from Independence, Mo
to Independence, Ore., along
the Old Oregon Trail. The
organization is now planning
to build an Oregon Trail Mu
seum in Independence, Ore.

group.
