JB,
You pose some good questions. If you get out a map and follow the line as described, it looks a lot like the projected Surprise Valley RR. All of the Nevada Transportation Co/Surprise Valley equipment had been disposed of, or or absorbed back into the EN, following the 1921 ENRy/NTCo merger. JE Sexton must of had a line on 30" equipment from somewhere. In the 1920s, there was no scheme too stupid for people to invest in.
Regards,
Greg Maxwell
