Virginia & Truckee RR Exclusive Steam Charter
We’re working with the Virginia & Truckee RR for an exclusive steam charter strictly for Symposium attendees and local RR modelers. This could possibly include photo run by’s with freight cars and take place on Saturday afternoon.
Trip would take approximately 2-2 1/2 hours if run by’s take place. If weather is clear, car consist will include an open gondola and caboose. If weather is inclement then the consist will be two heavy commuter coaches. You’ll see mines, mill remains, most likely wild horses and beautiful high desert scenery
In as much that the Symposium is being held when the V&T steam operations are down for seasonal maintenance, fares are yet to be determined. We’re expecting something in the range of $100-125.00. A big factor will be the number of attendees who make a commitment to ride, so please note such on your registration if you’re seriously interested in the smell of steam oil and blast of the whistle.
