c1900 This is indeed a jewel for railroadiana collectors. It’s a lock with key from the Virginia & Truckee Railroad. The lock measures 2.5”x 3” and, like the key, is made of brass. There is some age pitting, but the key and lock mechanism work like new. There is also a 9” chain attached. This is a beauty, with V&T RR stamped on the shackle. Provenance: V&TRR Superindenant Major Sampson to Reno Banker Gordon Harris. Gordon Harris Estate - HKA#65540
