VIRGINIA & TRUCKEE RAILROAD

Item # 12625

Brass heart shape switch lock from the Queen of the Shortlines! This W. Bohannon lock is stamped on the shackle V&TRR in serif lettering. The lock has some dings and dents but has never been repaired. Most of the early V&T locks were dug and thus needed to be repaired to operate. This one remains completely original and untouched. All springs strong in this lock. It comes with an unmarked key with the correct keying to function the lock. This early 1870-80's V&T lock will be the prize of your Nevada or western lock collection for years to come. Don't miss the opportunity.

PENINSULAR ELECTRIC RAILWAY

Item # 12479

Looking at this lock, most would conclude this is Pacific Electric Railway, however the true roots of this relic reside about 350 miles North. The Peninsular Railway of California started operations under Southern Pacific control in 1908 with track being built mainly from Palo Alto to San Jose. This road was never in competition with or under contract with its southern counterpart the Pacific Electric. The lock carries the CS-13 designation and also the keying of the Peninsular Railway. Several references of the period refer to this road as both the Peninsular Railway and the Peninsular Electric Railway. True Pacific Electric locks are cast CS-10 with the standard Pacific Electric keying, making this one of the rarest California cast switch locks in existence.

What a beautiful survivor with some added historical color!
