2010 CORPORATE SPONSORS:
CARSON CITY NUGGET
GOLD DUST WEST
MEMBERSHIP is now on a yearly basis, renewed in January of each year. If you have been a member you will be getting a renewal notice shortly or you may renew or start your membership by ordering it through our store.
Why was the V & T built? Who built it? What did it cost? There were no other railroads in the area so how do you get steam engines to Virginia City in 1869? Why do we want to rebuild it now? Who will benefit from the reconstruction?
 There are lots of questions and lots of history too. Apparently the question of “Is it possible?” never came up, or maybe it was just ignored. Virginia City had a problem to solve, they listed all the obstacles, and then they built a railroad; in less than a year!
We hope you get answers to your questions on The Project page and enjoy the history as well. And don't forget to check the "Newsletter" page for current construction updates.
