The Lincoln Journal Star ran an article today talking about the history of the city’s drive-ins, focusing mainly on the West O and its drawbacks. The author complained about frequent noise from the nearby Burlington Railroad hump yard as well as its position near the flight path for Lincoln Airport. He said that the West O’s final night was June 23, 1985.
