The Virginia & Truckee Railroad Engine number 11, the "Reno", is arriving in Virginia City, Nevada with a load of holiday travelers.  The classic American locomotive exemplifies pioneering railroads of the United States.  The Virginia & Truckee Railroad was famous for it's quality and pride.  The line ran primarily from Reno, Nevada to Carson City and up to Virginia city.  The wealth of minerals traveled out of the area via rail and the people and supplies came in by rail.
