V&T Train Ride

This morning, thanks to the Carson City Convention & Visitors Bureau, I was able to take an early-morning ride on the reconstructed V&T Railroad. We steamed out of Virginia City about 8:15, a little bit behind schedule, and arrived in Carson City just shy of 9:30. It was a great ride, and I have a whole story to put together and a bunch of photos and video to sort through. But for now, here are the pictures I Twittered from the train along the way.
