[PAR] [TLE] Fernley and Lassen Railway [SEP] The Fernley & Lassen was constructed in 1912-1914 between Fernley, Nevada and Westwood, California, near Susanville, a distance of approximately 112 mi .  The railroad was constructed to connect the Red River Lumber Company's facilities in Westwood with the Southern Pacific's main line running through Fernley.  After the railroad's construction, it was heavily used by other nearby lumber companies; the Fruit Growers Supply Company maintained the longest-lived railroad connection with the Fernley & Lassen, with an active connection present between 1920-1953.  Due to the Great Depression, which significantly lowered freight volume, and the completion of Western Pacific's competing branch to Westwood, however, the Fernley & Lassen's days were numbered.  By 1934, passenger traffic service had been discontinued, with local rail freighting following it in 1956.  In 1978, the Interstate Commerce Commission approved the Southern Pacific's petition for removal. [PAR] [TLE] Fernley, Nevada [SEP] Fernley is a city in Lyon County, Nevada, United States, east of the Reno–Sparks metropolitan area.
