I just looked at Gary's street shot and thought I'd throw this one out there. Really odd town Reno, dying yet vibrant. a place in transition for sure. But, they have STEAK N SHAKE!!!!!!! :-)
My notes from this trip in 1994 had this down as a 'Reno Local', taken somewhere around Reno. However, I can't locate the exact place on maps.
Reno, Nevada, USA, after sunset, the casino hotels lit in neon colors, it's impossible to find a "legal" parking spot for this viewpoint, but it was very quiet when I visited (late November 2020) and I didn't stay very long, not sure if it was because of Covid, but there were so many signs against parking and the roadside viewpoint was fenced off for no apparent reason. I hope everyone is having a wonderful week.
Eldorado Resort Casino Reno is a hotel and casino in Reno, Nevada, owned and operated by Eldorado Resorts.
Don Carano opened the Eldorado in 1973 with 282 guest rooms, two restaurants and 10,000 square feet of gaming space with 200 slots and 12 table games. The Eldorado of 1973 included a lobby, registration area, coffee shop, cocktail lounge, specialty dinner house and gaming area. Also incorporated into the property were a convention room accommodating up to 600 people, a swimming pool and executive suites.
In 1979, the success of the Eldorado Hotel Casino prompted what would be the first of many expansions and improvements. Guestrooms were brought to a total of 411 with a further expansion completed in September 1985 adding 20,000 square feet of gaming area and four new restaurants. By 1989 the Eldorado had grown to 817 hotel rooms and boasted its own on-site bakery, pasta and gelato shop and butcher shop. In 1992, the Eldorado added a 10 story parking garage for added convenience to guests.
The completion of another dramatic transformation for the Eldorado happened in 1995. Coinciding with the construction of the Silver Legacy Resort Casino, a 50/50 joint venture between the Eldorado and MGM Mirage, the Eldorado added a crossover to the new downtown property connected by the first ever micro-brewery in a casino, The Brew Brothers. The exclusive Spa Tower was created, adding 10 floors of luxury accommodations; a 10,175 square foot convention center was opened as well as a 580 seat Broadway-style showroom. A coffee roasting company was added to the list of on-site services and the casino now totaled 76,500 square feet with more than 1,500 slot machines, 55 table games, a keno lounge, full service state-of-the-art race and sportsbook and poker room.

The Fort Reno Chapel sits quietly on the prairie west of El Reno, but its story reaches far beyond Oklahoma. In 1944, German POWs housed at Fort Reno were assigned to build this chapel—shaping stone, laying brick, and crafting the simple, sturdy lines that still define it today.
They worked under U.S. Army supervision, using local materials and traditional craftsmanship, leaving behind a structure that feels both military‑plain and unexpectedly elegant. Eight decades later, the chapel remains one of the most tangible reminders of the POW camp at Fort Reno and the complicated wartime history woven into this part of Indian Territory.

Timetable eastbound on the Reno Branch, the local is south of Reno Junction. The intermodal traffic behind GP35s WP 3015 and UP 785 will be spotted for unloading at Parr yard in North Reno. Today all trailer traffic is unloaded at the former SP Sparks yard, now the originating point for the local which services the truncated south end of the former WP branch. Dave Stanley photo ©2025
Of course there are many thousands of photos with this iconic Reno, Nevada sign. I like how this one turned out though.
Before I knew it it was mid-October and I was itching for a photo trip even a short one. My brother joined me on a run down to Iowa City to see my daughter. Our route tried to make the most of our travels for railroad action and fall color. After picking him up we made our way down the river along CPKC. It was a brilliant morning and we were pleased to catch up to a unit tank train south of La Crescent, MN. We had overtaken the train by Reno but unfortunately it had one of the trademark CP filthy GEs pulling it. A shame since everything else was in place for a nice chase with many sets.

Fourteenth-floor room at the Sands Regency in Reno. The window was of course inoperable, so I got a table (the golden brown strip at the bottom, which becomes a table when viewed in the fieldofview) as close as I could to the glass. It turns out that I captured a bit of police action (center left of the parking lot). I am glad to report that the occupants of the car were not handcuffed or arrested. But it was a long search and interrogation. Maybe they were the "wrong" ethnicity?
