MP 276 House Track Switch
On the evening of February 10, 2020, an errant pickup truck driver drove up this gravel embankment just to the left of the switch (right) and got stuck on the track. This is the Union Pacific Nevada Subdivision main line, and the switch at right runs from the main into the Fernley "House Tracks." Fortunately, the driver was able to get the truck over the tracks, where he then drove down the space between the main and siding before bouncing back over the main and clear of the tracks.
