In 1863 a stage stop was founded at what is today the intersection of Jibboom and Bridge streets. Shortly thereafter, several lumber mills were established. Beginning in 1890 and continuing for three decades, construction of rail line were administered and dispatched from Truckee. The railyard served as the headquarters fire trains and helper engines that aided trains climbing to the Donner Summit. The 1950’s saw a return to the use of the railyard for milling. At the height of the industry, the sawmill could process 45 million board feet per year. In 1989, the railyard lumber mill closed. Shortly after, The Town of Truckee was incorporated recognizing the need to address the changing economy and take charge of planning Truckee’s future. Through an extensive process over many years involving the Town of Truckee, citizen committees, stakeholders and the railroad, the Truckee Railyard has received enormous community support and unanimous approval.
