Mossmain, Montana

Mossmain is a ghost town in Yellowstone County, Montana, United States in the Billings metro area.

The community was founded and named after Preston Boyd Moss, who played a significant role in the infrastructure development and economic establishments in the Yellowstone County area, and specifically Billings.

The town was specifically planned out to accommodate for a massive rail junction and a showcase of architecture and modern culture.

[5] The onset of the Great Depression followed by World War II left Moss' dream for a planned city hobbled by lack of funds and material resources.

Along with this, the nature of the town's planning was highly experimental and many aspects had already become technologically outdated.
