If you model the Virginia & Truckee or any late 1800s railroad your layout isn't complete without ore cars! These ore cars are modeled after those built for and by the Virginia & Truckee. Used to haul ore from the Comstock Lode in Virginia City to the stamp mills along the Carson River.

For more information on Virginia & Truckee ore cars please refer to V&TRRHS Publication No. 16 From the Mines to the Mills: Virginia & Truckee Ore Cars and Comstock Ore Traffic.
