As an added event to coincide with their 36th Annual Railroad History Symposium the Nevada State Railroad Museum will be operating both of their 4-4-0s on Sunday, October 21. I don't know of anywhere else in the United States that this is possible. The locomotives operating will be ex. Virginia & Truckee 22, Inyo, built by Baldwin in 1875 and ex. Dardanelle & Russellville 8, built by Cooke in 1888. There will be plenty of photo ops and rides will be available even for those not participating in the symposium. For anyone who might be interested in attending the symposium additional information can be found at www.nsrm-friends.org.
