UP's Sparks, NV train yard

if you like snowblowers, they usually park a couple within sight of the sparks nugget casino. in fact, that's where your birds eye view might come from.

Try posting this on the Trains forum. There is a guy over there (username SP9033) who is from the Reno area.

Also try http://www.terraserver.microsoft.com/ and http://maps.google.com/. By the way, if you are looking for the former SP yard, I believe that is in Sparks, NV.
