NOTE: Due to construction on Taylor Street, please follow this route to the V&T Railroad from C Street in Virginia City, NV.
Come to Virginia City and, if we have our way, ride the train! But even if you don’t ride our railroad, our 1870 historic passenger depot is still worth visiting! It’s a very short mostly level walk from St. Mary’s in the Mountains Church to our Depot, and we’re typically open 10am-4:30pm during the operating season.
Here are some neat things to see on the depot grounds and inside the depot:
- See the Reno! The historic #11 V&T Reno locomotive is usually on display outside the depot
- Your kids (or you!) can ring an authentic train bell
- There are mining carts, a handcart, a lawn area, a party caboose and more
- Inside the historic depot is a gift shop with lots of fun railroad-themed items for you and the kids
- Much of the depot that you see is original, especially the passenger waiting room
