SUMMARY:Lecture Series Continues! Jean-Guy T. Dubé presents "Depots of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad"
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to continue our 2025 Lecture Series! \nThursday\, July 17th lecture will be Jean-Guy T. Dubé on: “Depots of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad” \nDinner starts at 4:30 p.m. and lecture starts at 7:00 p.m. \nLecture Description:\nDepots of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad.  When one asks about Nevada’s railroad history\, immediately the Virginia & Truckee Railroad is remembered.  Beginning with its first spike driven on September 28\, 1869\, the railroad carried the ore and riches of the Comstock Lode\, the lumber and supplies to build Virginia City and its mines\, connected to the Central Pacific Railroad’s transcontinental route in Reno\, provided service to our state’s capital Carson City.  In 1906 the V&T expanded with a branch to connect and ship the agricultural wealth of the Carson Valley from Minden.  V&T’s locomotives were stars in movies\, passengers gave way to railfans and tourists\, riding the rails until its closing day on May 31\, 1950.  There is much V&T legacy that continues\, so grab a free ticket to ride and see the V&T’s depots and wayside structures as we steam down the rails of Nevada history. \nBio of Lecturer:\nJean-Guy T. Dubé works for the State Historic Preservation Office of Nevada as the National and State Register of Historic Places Coordinator.  He is a member of the Friends of the Nevada State Railroad Museum\, Southern Pacific Historic & Technical Society\, the Virginia & Truckee Railroad Historical Society\, and many others.  Dubé received the national Leicester B.
