Red Caboose Motel: If you're willing to give up the life of the country squire and ready for a change of pace, check into the Red Caboose Motel and stay in a restored caboose for the night. Choose from a variety of different cabooses -- half-car or full-size cars are available. All the rooms have private baths and cable TV. (These are only a small sampling of the cars).
Keller's Bridge: Most covered bridges are painted red, but this particular one is painted white. It dates from 1873, and has been rebuilt once following a flood.
Landis Mill Bridge: Built in 1873 over Little Conestoga Creek by Elias McMellen, this is Lancaster County's shortest vehicle-used bridge. Its has a total span of 53 feet, and is 15 feet wide. The multiple king-post truss structure originally cost $969 to construct.

Neff's Mill Bridge: Originally built in 1824 by Christian Brackbille, the single-span double-Burr-arch bridge was rebuilt by James C. Carpenter in 1875 for $1,860. Also known as Bowman's Mill Covered Bridge and Pequea #7 Bridge, it's 102 feet long and a little more than 10 feet wide, which makes it the county's narrowest bridge.
