Mound House, Nevada
The Hazen cutoff took most of the booming Tonopah-Goldfield business away from the V & T. Mound House doesn’t quite have the history that you’ll find in Carson City or Virginia City, and what there was has been mostly erased. But if you look close, you can find traces of it here and there, remnants in the landscape of the railroad that used to cross these lands, and that will again one day soon. The grade here starts to curve and begins winding its way down to the Carson River. We’ve been here before, this is the spot where the new V&T is going to rejoin the original grade to finish the trip to Carson. Off to the right you can see where the earth has been disturbed recently during the construction of the new line.

Perhaps its greatest claim to fame today is as the location of the famous Moonlight Bunny Ranch. A crude community developed, and water was shipped in via the V&T.

But what about the first time the V&T came to town, 140 years ago? Back then there was no civilization here, so they could cut the tracks right through the middle of the valley. Here you can see the rails plowing up towards the Comstock, and the town of Mound House which sprung up around the tracks. Six local bowlers were inducted in the third class of the Carson Country Bowling Association Hall of Fame at their annual meeting on Saturday, April 27, at HomeGrown Bowl.
