2025 Battle Trains are Now Over Thanks for Making Them a Success! Please check back for the 2026 season
Don’t miss out on daytime Battle Trains, ride down to the battlefield and get in the thick of things! Also, there’s a Saturday at 7pm Champagne train for those who want some railroad-themed evening fun.
History comes to life on Labor Day weekend as Comstock Civil War re-enactors bring epic battles to the Comstock in Virginia City and Gold Hill. Trains played a vital role during the Civil War by transporting supplies and troops from one place to the other, making them a popular target for ambushes.
Join us to relive one of the bloodiest wars in American history. Listen to the Fort Point Band play authentic era music. Get your dose of cold lead right from your seat on the Virginia & Truckee Railroad while rooting for Yankee and Rebel soldiers as they shoot out battle scenes on the Comstock.
During this event, the railroad commemorates the American Civil War and provides a unique opportunity for visitors to step back in time and experience what it was like during that tumultuous era.
The event features reenactments of Civil War battles and skirmishes, where actors dressed in period-appropriate costumes portray soldiers from both the Union and Confederate armies. These historical reenactments aim to educate and entertain visitors about the significant events of the American Civil War and the impact it had on the nation.
What a way to celebrate Labor Day! Cannons and muskets and trains, oh my! Get your tickets early.
The End Hardly had the Doctor finished his story when there was a long whistle from the locomotive, followed by several short ones. The speed of the train was slackened, and, while the passengers were wondering what was the matter, the conductor came into the car where our friends were seated and told them there was a herd of buffaloes crossing the track. There's another! And another! This pen is weeping copiously. The race was out of their hands. ¡°A woman!¡± gasped Dick, and at the same instant the figure whirled, Dick leaped up, the light went out and Dick rushed blindly forward. Landor's patience was worn out. "It's a confoundedly curious thing," he told them, "for men who really want to find Indians, to go shooting and building fires." And he sent them to rest upon their arms and upon the cold, damp ground. Landor still rode at the head of his column, but his chin was sunk down on his red silk neckerchief, his face was swollen and distorted under its thick beard, and his eyes were glazed. They stared straight ahead into the sand whirl and the sulphurous glare. He had sent Brewster on ahead some hours before. "You[Pg 138] will want to see Miss McLane as soon as possible," he had said, "and there is no need of both of us here." "Here," said Si, sternly, as he came back again. "What's all this row? Why don't you boys fall in 'cordin' to size, as I told you?" Chapter 8 "Lady," replied Margaret modestly; "I am the wife of one of my lord's vassals; and my mother, and myself, humbly beg you will accept this present." Byles made no reply. In little more than half an hour, they arrived at the meadow in which stood the parish church and the abbey of Hailes. The church, a small, plain Gothic building, with a red tiled roof, stood in the centre of a burial-ground, of dimensions adapted to the paucity of inhabitants in the parish. A low stone wall enclosed it, and some old beech-trees threw their shadows upon the mounds and the grave-stones that marked where "the rude fore-fathers of the hamlet" slept. "Silence!" interrupted Holgrave, sternly; "take the babe and strip it and attend to it as a mother should attend to her own infant; and, mark me, it is your own! your child did not die! As you value my life, remember this." "And I am freed? and by the bond!" exclaimed the monk. During this altercation, a small body of archers had advanced from the lines to within bow-shot of the disputants. HoMEÀïÃÀÓÈÀûæ«cosÀï·¬
