Description
Documents of the Tonopah and Tidewater Railroad, California.
Background
The Tonopah and Tidewater Railroad served eastern California and southwestern Nevada; it operated from 1907 to 1940. It was
largely used to haul borax from Francis Mason Smith's Pacific Coast Borax Company mine, east of Death Valley, but it also
hauled other items and had connections with several other railroads in California.
