History

American Indian attacks increased after the Sand Creek Massacre in Colorado in 1864, bringing more troops to the post, which was by now called Platte Bridge Station. With a population of 49,644, Casper is the second largest city in Wyoming, according to the United States Census, 2000 census. In 1867, the troops were ordered to abandon Fort Caspar in favor of Fort Fetterman downstream on the North Platte along the Bozeman Trail. The town of Casper itself was founded well after the fort had been closed. The special chartered train carrying the men up from Texas stopped at Casper.
