Train Station #40 -- November 7, 2011


The current Virginia and Truckee depot in Virginia City is a combination car. The train on the left is waiting to leave for Eastgate on the edge of Carson City. The track between the train and the station will hold the short-run train when it gets back from Gold Hill.

The original Virginia City passenger depot is a private home which I forgot to photograph. Its successor was beyond Tunnel #6 which is not presently open. That depot burned many years ago. The freight depot still stands, but I did not get to visit it.
