According to the Tax & License Division of the Gaming Control Board, the only United Coin "trailer station" currently scheduled is an eight-hour temporary casino on May 22 at Sak N Save 3, on Highway 50 E., in Carson City. A slot-route site, the store closed on May 30, 2010, putting its "grandfathered" status as a gambling location in jeopardy and necessitating one of the temporary eight-hour casinos, that have been housed variously in trailers and tents, by which a vacant location can perpetuate its casino license by operating a nominal number of slot machines for one day every year or two.
For those not in-the-know, the "station" moniker stuck after Station Casinos became the first group with a publicized trailer casino on the site of the former Castaways, back in 2007, when they were trying to protect a grandfathered license that would allow them to build a big casino without normally required hotel rooms -- a future plan long-since abandoned.
Stay tuned, because we have an inkling that some additional "trailer stations" will be announced pretty soon...
