RVs and band instruments head the list of products made in this manufacturing town founded in 1824 at the meeting point of the Elkhart and St. Joseph rivers. Heading the town's numerous museums is the Ruthmere, housed in the Beardsley Mansion, an exceptional Beaux-Arts home built in 1908. Railroad enthusiasts will want to see the National New York Central Railroad Museum, which displays restored trains and a train office from the old New York Central line. You can also ride the Old Wakarusa Railroad (in Wakarusa), powered by a one-third scale model of an 1862 steam engine.
Other worthwhile stops include the Elkhart County Historical Museum (in Bristol) and the Midwest Museum of American Art.
