Jewel of the Eastern Sierra
First known as Gray's Toll Station, then Coburn's Station, Truckee was established in 1863. Renowned for its lumber industry, Transcontinental Railroad, icehouses, saloons and red light district, Truckee has never been known for her laid back demeanor. It has always been a town where people came to entertain themselves on Friday and Saturday nights, just as it is today.| HM Number | HMFKA |
