Genoa was a major station on the Pony Express Route while this was still Utah Territory. At about the same time that the Pony Express was made obsolete by the telegraph, Nevada became a state in 1861. Plaques were placed at many locations along the Pony Express Route during the 1960-1961 centennial.
