Randy Curlin General Iceland was a station on the original Central Pacific line. The tracks are physically separated at this location to go around a massive wooden icehouse which harvested ice (Truckee River was shallow at this location) during winter and was stored under sawdust for the ventilated refrigerator cars. 2/18/2024 11:54:46 PM
