Virginia City, Nevada was the town where Martin McFly, trying to prove that he wasn't a coward, became involved in a fight and was stabbed with a Bowie knife.
It is about twenty-six miles southeast of Reno, Nevada, where Arthur McFly and Sylvia Miskin were married on October 12, 1931 (five years earlier than the original timeline).
In the real world, the Virginia & Truckee Railroad (a heritage railroad in Virginia City) is the current owner of the Alco S6 locomotive that portrayed the engine that destroyed the DeLorean at the end of Part III.
