In this Jan. 28, 2014 photo, the world’s largest covered wagon as recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records, is seen along along Old US Route 66 in Lincoln, Ill. Officials are getting ready to repair the covered wagon, that, despite its 10,000 pounds, was nearly toppled over by winds that reached and estimated 50 mph on Jan. 26. One wheel was destroyed, another broken, the wagon box was damaged and the cover was torn up. But one part of the wagon that wasn't damaged was the 12-foot fiberglass Abe Lincoln sitting up front.
