A popular gaming destination with locals since opening in Henderson, Nevada, in 1931, the Railroad Pass Hotel and Casino sports a 120-room hotel and 21,000 square feet of gaming space. Featuring low-limit as well as higher-limit wagering on blackjack, roulette, and craps, in addition to almost 400 slots, a keno area and a sports book, guests and visitors at the Railroad Pass get plenty of bang for their buck. There's also bargain dining options, especially on weekends.
The Box Car Buffet is open for all three meals, but weekend dinner is the big deal with a seafood spread on Friday nights and steak and shrimp on the marquee Saturday nights. For 24-hour cooked-to-order service, there's the Iron Rail Cafe.
For a relaxed night out, the Conductor's Room has more upscale offerings. The service throughout the Railroad Pass is friendly, the place is well-maintained and the limits are low ($2 blackjack), which is why people keep coming back after all these years.
