Get to know Nevada State Historical Marker 189

The effort involved shortening of the line in some places. One such change took Wadsworth (Nevada), a division terminal, off the main line. During the summer of 1904, the terminal was moved to this location, which became the town of Sparks.

The railroad dismantled a huge forty-stall locomotive roundhouse in 1959. The machine and erecting shops are still standing.
