Early pass No. 48, issued to CC McNeil (Gen. Supt. of M & P& S.R. Valley Road). Signed by Erasmus Gest as manager. Printed on cardstock with some soiling. The NCO was organized in 1880 with the plan of connecting Reno, Nevada with the Columbia River in Oregon. Track in Reno started in 1881. The farthest north they reached was Lakeview, Oregon by 1912. The company was known for its corruption. A board meeting in Reno actually ended in a gunfight between two members! (Prag Collection) City: State: Date: Inventory# 39041
