New Reno, Broken Hills, Vault City and Gecko, a quite diverse collection of towns, are all in former Nevada state territory. However these towns (except Gecko) are present at Vault City Northern California Travel Log. Jules refers New Reno as side part of California also (Cee-Ay).
Two explanations of this inconsistency are possible:
Tycho's father mentioned Las Vegas and a fat mobster there. Las Vegas localization is beyond eastern edge of the Fallout worldmap (and beyond western edge of Van Buren worldmap, 30 miles north-west of Hoover Dam).
| The following is based on Van Buren and has not been confirmed by canon sources. |
Hoover Dam lies on the border between Nevada and Arizona. The NCR supply train sometimes arrived to Hoover Dam from the west.
Desert Rangers were a faction living in the Nevada area during Vault Dweller times. They were descended from people who had survived the devastation of the Great War, likely living among the badlands of Nevada. This small community kept a strong survivalist contingent - so they still had some small arms and books. They probably had something like the cliff-dwelling Indians going on for their town. Tycho was one of them. The Chosen One didn't meet the Desert Rangers in the western part of Nevada (Fallout 2 area, 2241-2253 year).
In real world there are two class I railroads in Nevada:

According to Hoover Dam and Boulder design documents Hoover Dam was conected by railroads with western parts of the NCR, Fort Aradesh, Boulder and Denver.
Because of Powder Gangs operations line from Hoover Dam to Fort Aradesh become inoperable.
Fallout 2 takes place partly in Nevada, as would Van Buren if it were finished and as will Fallout: New Vegas. Nevada was mentioned by Tycho in the original Fallout.
The Nevada is a large propeller passenger plane found in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The Nevada is a large plane with two radial engines. Its access door is at the back and the plane always leans tilted nose up when parked. The company name "Juank Air" is marked on it. It can be found locked in the Easter Bay International Airport in San Fierro parked on the plane taxi-zone. It is unlocked after completing Learning to Fly. The Nevada is based on the vintage Douglas DC-3, and as such is the oldest aircraft in the Grand Theft Auto series. Unlike the Dodo, Shamal, and the Skimmer, the Nevada is regularly seen flying in the sky. Also, unlike most planes, the Nevada has more than one default color.Due to its size it is great to surf the plane during multiplayer.
The Nevada is used in the mission Dam and Blast from the "Heist" strand where CJ has to plant explosives on the Sherman Dam generators that will be later detonated to disable the power supplying Caligula's Palace.

The Nevada has a decent top speed, but it has a rather long take off distance and slow acceleration. The Nevada also has good durability; it can withstand one or two homing rockets before being destroyed. Keep in mind, though, that crashing into an obstacle head-on will immediately destroy the plane.
