The Community of Langdon became well known as the “Good Luck Town” around 1908, in part due to the lack of deaths in the area over a 25-year period.

Langdon was also located on the horseshoe shaped railway turnaround, adding to the Good Luck Town status. This horseshoe, however, is not very traditional, as it is upside down in appearance, pouring Good Luck to those who reside within the community.
