New Interim Depot Site on DUMP ROAD!

No. 23 -- VIRGINIA AND TRUCKEE RAILWAY -- Nevada Railroad Reconstruction Chronicle

COMMISSION CHANGES THEIR MIND AGAIN

In the last month or two a six-month old secret plan by Ken Dorr and Bob Hadfield was brought to light. The Commission spent almost $1.5 million dollars years ago to buy land for a terminal at Drako Way in Carson City.

Now they have a new plan, and Dwight Millard has said it centers on DUMP ROAD!

Now that they have publicly revealed their plan to run short term operations from east of Flint Drive down into the Canyon and back, and MAYBE up to Gold Hill, they want to put a "temporary depot" northeast of the Carson City dump. This is not the same as the temporary loading area they will use at Eastgate Siding for the Railfest festivities Aug 14-16.
