Talk:Prairie schooner

Untitled
This entire page needs to go. "Prairie schooner" is actually pretty meaningless; it's simply a fanciful description of the covered wagons that crossed the plains. A Conestoga wagon is a particular type of covered wagon used to carry freight in the eastern United States. Conestogas were **NOT** used crossing the plains.

All Conestogas were covered wagons, but not all covered wagons were Conestogas. Conestogas did not cross the plains. "Prairie schooner" refers to covered wagons that DID cross the plains, therefore "Prairie schooner" should not direct to "Conestoga wagon."

"Prairie schooner" should direct to "Covered wagon," but there is no "Covered wagon" page.

All clear?
