Hi Adam,

> Nevada?

Last time I was there, it was closed by some development corporation,
presumably in expectation of building a Southern Nevada Supplemental
Airport, pending an environmental impact assessment. I just found the
following document online:

http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/pdf/E8-17807.pdf

which may answer some of your questions (haven't read all of it yet).

I was under the impression that it only affected the portion of Roach
west of the RR tracks -- can't very well have aircraft runways
crossing those tracks! Does anyone know if access to the east side
is still allowed? --Rob
