Geocache Description:

Keep a close watch for passing trains in this bustling town!

 


Muncy (also called Muncey, Tracey or Tracy) is an unincorporated community in Texas County, Oklahoma, United States. Muncy is 18.2 miles (29.3 km) west-northwest of Guymon. The Panhandle Townsite Company founded Muncy in 1929, intending for the community to become a commercial and agricultural center for the region.[2] The Tracey Woodframe Grain Elevator in Muncy is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[3]

The Tracey Woodframe Grain Elevator is a grain elevator in Muncy, Oklahoma. The elevator was built in 1930 along the Beaver, Mead & Englewood Railroad, one year after Muncy was founded. The elevator operated continuously from its opening to at least 1983, outlasting the railroad and becoming more successful than the town.[2] On May 13, 1983, the elevator was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

The pile of railroad ties that sits on the southwest corner of the intersection is all that remains of the railroad, whos path is visable if you look for the raised strip of land. The elevator fell down many years ago but the bucket elevator is still visable, and the only remaining buliding still standing is the scalehouse.
