Another one lost in the "BIG DUMP"
I wrote an article on the Railroad Pass last year for Gaming Times.
It is the oldest continious operating casino in NV. License 007 issued in 1931.
Someone questioned this statement in email this morning. They thought the oldest was the Las Vegas Club. The Las Vegas Club was issued license 003 in 1931 but it has moved several times over the years. Not sure which time but it was closed long enough on one of the moves to lose its license. There was a new one issued. I went and looked at their license before I wrote the article on Railroad Pass. I forgot the number but it has more digits than my age.
BTW, I bet the Railroad Pass did not have a phone in 1949.
