V & T Train Ride to Virginia City

I wanted to experience Nevada’s interesting railroad history, so I took V & T Railroad’s daytrip from Carson City to Virginia City.  The train departed the Carson City Depot at 10am for a 1-hour and 10-minute ride.  During the conductor’s live and entertaining historical commentary, he said wildlife had been sparce.  However, we spotted over a dozen wild horses, several birds, a deer and even some cowboys shooting during the trip.  There was plenty of time to visit museums, great restaurants & boutique shops before the 3pm departure!  It was a fabulous adventure and I highly recommend taking this trip!
