I don't know what you have in mind for watching trains in Reno, spjoe, but the town is no longer a traditional train watching spot, as the tracks are now in a trench below ground level.

See the below link.

You can play with the above link, and move the view of the tracks west or east, or change it to just a map.

The Sparks Yard is nearby to the east.
