The Middle of Nowhere
-
(seen on an Amtrak FB group)
Welcome to the middle of nowhere, this is it — Glasgow, Montana. Really.
After much research, the Washington Post in 2018 determined that Glasgow is actually the middle of nowhere.
Glasgow “is farthest — about 4.5 hours in any direction — from any metropolitan area of more than 75,000 people,” the newspaper determined.
Glasgow does have an Amtrak stop, and this is what it looked like this afternoon. They have a McDonald’s here, too.
I was there in 2018, but on the other side of the train (facing South). I'll bet the "Montana Bar" is lots of fun:

There are at least 2 trains passing through the Glasgow stock yards in Google Earth, one north the other south, both almost 1.5 miles long. It looks like a nice place.
See the trains here (zoom in):
