Just off of Exit 34 on Interstate 80, Shelby is a quaint little town with railroad connections including a depot and rail car in the park.
A beautiful walking trail runs through the town, and the main street has plenty of character.

Shelby’s big business include the Menard’s Warehouse and Cardinal Lofts. ​ Shelby is also home to the world’s largest corn stalk sculpture, in Agri-Symbol Pak.
