Virginia City

About a year ago We went back to Virginia City. We always have fun going. This time I was able to ride the Steam train. This engine wasn't one of the original but it is over 100 years old. The last train that the virginia & Truckee owned was 28. The original company closed down in the 50's. It was started again with the engine being #29.
We were able to ride in the open car. It was a beautiful day. The 2 miles covered 90% of the original route. I did have a blast going back into history. This is the only wasy I can do that since I don't know anybody who has a time machine that works.
