History
James Paul (Jim) Walsh, Jr. (born on 21 October 1930
in Inglewood, California; died 10. June 2018) was executive vice president of the J-V Corporation.
He was interested in anything related to railroads and built,
after he had moved to Golden Valley, Nevada a model railroad layout of the Feather River Route.
He owned a collection of three narrow gauge steam locomotives,
which he had imported from Alaska, to save them from being scrapped.
For these he built a locomotive shed and a short piece of track in Fallon.
