Here are the remains of a pair of Dodge railcars that were used on the Bullfrog Goldfield Railroad. They currently reside in Goldfield, NV where someone is trying to put together a RR museum.









If you're interested you can see some of the other stuff they have:

Nice stuff Ray.   I notice your photos are dated from a few years back, has anything happened with this stuff?

I don't know, I haven't been back to check on it in a couple of years.

Just watch out for the speed trap as you enter Goldfield...

I have an article from the Tonopah Times Bonanza about the person who's putting together the museum. I'll post when I find it.

Hi Ray,

Attached is the address of an article in the Pahrump Valley Times talking about projects in Goldfield. One paragraph talks about the Historical Society receiving a grant to construct a restoration of the B&G Yards. When I get home, I'll get the other article to you as well as a few photos.
