So the sign says. That's right, the town of Sheldahl straddles two county lines so portions of it are in Story, Polk and Boone county. This should be a quick P&G. Bring your own pencil. No room for tradeables, sorry kiddies.
From Wikipedia. The area was settled by 120 Norwegian immigrants from Lisbon, Illinois on June 7, 1855; including Osmond and Anna Sheldahl and five of their children. It incorporated as a city on January 18, 1882.[4]
The Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad established a rail line through Sheldahl during the 1880s. In 2005, Union Pacific Railroad sold a 25-mile discontinued rail corridor—which included the line through Sheldahl—to the Iowa Natural Heritage Foundation, which enabled the construction of the recreational High Trestle Trail. Access to the trail, including a parking area and washroom, is located in Sheldahl.[5]
