Railroad Pass Hotel, Casino & Travel Center

The casino opened on August 1, 1931. Railroad Pass Club was the third casino licensed in the state of Nevada and holds license number 4 under its latest name. Bob Verchota purchased the property in 1975.[8] In 1985, Verchota sold it to Michael Ensign, William Richardson, and David Belding, owners of the nearby Gold Strike Casino.[8][9] Railroad Pass became part of their company, Gold Strike Resorts.[10] Subsequently it became part of Circus Circus Enterprises (later Mandalay Resort Group), which purchased Gold Strike Resorts in 1995,[11] and then MGM Mirage (later MGM Resorts International), which acquired Mandalay in 2005. In September 2014, MGM agreed to sell Railroad Pass to Joseph DeSimone, a Henderson-based real estate broker and developer. The sale was completed in April 2015, with Marcus Suan assuming operation of the casino while Joseph DeSimone pursued a gaming license. Mr. DeSimone was able to utilize his 24 years of experience in development and business to rennovate the Railroad Pass Casino & Hotel. The property now has a fresh look, new games, new menus and a new exciting Culture!
