"The first train in Rhyolite was in December of 1906"

This is the Las Vegas Tonopah Railroad Depot. It was completed in June of 1909. It was built of concrete blocks and full gauge train rails at a whopping cost of $130,000.

The first train in Rhyolite was in December of 1906. The rails for the Las Vegas Tonopah Railroad had already been laid and were in use way before the Station was built. Oh there was going to be a grand party, but the town of Beatty beat Rhyolite to it, so everyone went to Beatty and enjoyed the party there.

Well, now you know more about Rhyolite than you ever wanted to know. If you ever get to the Nevada Desert, or you are going to visit Las Vegas, put us on your schedule. You won't be sorry, the Beatty, Rhyolite area has a lot to offer. Not to mention that we are the EASTERN GATEWAY TO DEATH VALLEY
