Locomotive No 11 (Reno)

'Reno' was built in 1872 by Baldwin locomotive works.  She is the oldest V&T locomotive still existing today. Reno was the favorite locomotive of the V&T, and was nicknamed 'Brass Betsy'.  She was kept polished her entire life, and was the primary locomotive to pull the express train between Reno and Virginia City. Originally a wood burner, she was converted to coal in 1876, and to burn oil in 1907.  She was the first V&T locomotive converted to burn oil. In 1945, she was sold to the movie studios, where she performed in over 20 movies, TV shows, and commercials.  She is currently residing at Old Tuscon, where she has been cosmetically restored following a devastating fire in 1995.

Never converted to coal or oil, 'Genoa' has remained a wood burner her entire life.  She was retired in 1908, and sold in 1938. She now resides at the California State Railroad Museum, restored to her 1902 appearance.

In 1924, she was sold to the Pacific Portland Cement Company, Gerlach, Nevada as #501.

Locomotive No 22 (Inyo)

Other than the famous 'Reno' steam locomotive, the second most popular iron horse on the V&T was the 'Inyo'. Built by Baldwin in 1875, she arrived in Reno on March 22, along with the J. W. Bowker. The wood burner cost $9,065 and when filled to capacity with approximately 2,000 gallons of water and three cords of wood, weighed over 58 tons. By 1879, the brass bedecked engine was employed in the V&T's regularly scheduled mixed passenger and freight service. At other times it substituted for the 'Reno' and 'Genoa' when they were in the shop. Beginning in the 1890's, No. 22 handled the road's crack Virginia City express train and saw extensive use during the Tonopah mining boom soon after 1900. In 1910, the 'Inyo' was next to the last of the V&T iron horses to be converted to burn oil. From 1926 on, the engine was considered to be retired, although she did replace the 'Reno' occasionally. Sold to the movie studios in 1935, she went on to star in more than 20 movies. She now resides at the Nevada State Railroad Museum, restored to a circa 1895 appearance.

Records are unclear, but it appears the Central Pacific built between 10 and 17 24' flat cars for the V&T around 1870.

Built for the Virginia & Truckee Railroad in 1872 by the Central Pacific Shops in Sacramento, CA. These cars were built to CP plans, as the CP shops had lost the original 24' Virginia & Truckee flat plans. Initially painted in yellow; by the 1890s, all cars were painted red. There is some discussion that the cars were initially painted a grey / slate color; a version is also provided for that possibility.
