The ghost writing on the Stage Coach, says "Wells Fargo Overland Coach" The coach is a roadside attraction in front of the Old Oatman Jail. Located Oatman, Mohave County, Arizona. "Oatman was fortunate because of its location on U.S. Highway 66, and local commerce shifted toward accommodating motorists traveling between Kingman, Arizona and Needles, California. From 1926 to 1952, the Mother Road coursed through the heart of town, sustaining a healthy tourism business. Interstate 40 bypassed Oatman in the early 1950s, however, leaving the town all but abandoned within a decade. Today, the community has only about 100 fulltime residents who primarily cater to tourists." Text source: ( visit link)
