The Myths, The Legends, The TV Western: Sending Mail the Pony Way
Legend has it that Buffalo Bill Cody and Wild Bill Hickok both rode for the Pony Express. Did they really? Many people think they know the true story of the Pony Express, but since the company records have never been discovered, is what we think we know the truth?
Learn about the myths and history of the Pony Express. In 1989, the Young Riders TV Western brought the legends of the Pony Express to a new generation. Come explore its historical accuracy.
