At one time the places we refer to as ghost towns were once thriving communities with more people than we can imagine. Each man and woman had their own hopes and dreams, aspirations they wanted to rise to once they struck gold. Some did and some did not. @virginiacitymt #gold #goldstrike #boomtown #aldergulch #sagebrushkid #marston #vigilantes #roadagents #vengeance #montana #montanaauthor #montanahistory #author #montanacreator #lastbestplace #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #lastbestpress #smallpress (at Virginia City, Montana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSTNkxXs8uo/?utm_medium=tumblr

Obvs, for my guys a train ride was the highlight of any trip anywhere. Last week we rode the Virginia City Short LIne through Alder Gulch. The twins were quick to point out that it was not a steam engine. It's smoke stack did not make smoke.The engineer confirmed that the gloriously restored steam engine stopped running in 2010 and this engine is a diesel. But, my guys were just as impressed and I was impressed with the history we learned along the way. We went back a few days later to pan for gold, so keep your eyes peeled for more Virginia City Nevada City photos.
