In Goldfield, they now have a vintage train on display. It's an 0-6-0 tank engine (missing cab and other parts) and two wooden box cars.
In addition to all these historic places, I also photographed some wildlife including hawks, antelope, burros, and a Great Basin rattlesnake (got some video of the snake).
Enjoy!
That's good stuff Ray!
Thanks for posting.
I love the pics. I've been to some of those places back in the 90's on a couple of Western trips but I don't remember which ones. Some of them look so familiar.
Thanks guys!
