(together with its subsidiaries, “Company”, “Las Vegas Railway”, “we”, “us” or “our”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) for use at the AnnualSpecial Meeting of Shareholders to be held at the office of Las Vegas Railway Express, Inc., located at 6650 Via Austi Pkwy,9480 South Eastern Ave, Suite 140,205, Las Vegas, NV 89119,89123, on September 30, 2014,April 17, 2015, at 9:10:00 A.M. PST, and at any and all adjournments or postponements thereof (the “Annual“Special Meeting”) for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of AnnualSpecial Meeting of Shareholders.  Accompanying this Proxy Statement is a proxy/voting instruction form (the “Proxy”) for the AnnualSpecial Meeting, which you may use to indicate your vote as to the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.  It is contemplated that this Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of Proxy will be first mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about September 11, 2014.March 24, 2015.

The Company will solicit shareholders by mail through its regular employees and will request banks and brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries, to solicit their customers who have stock of the Company registered in the names of such persons and will reimburse them for reasonable, out-of-pocket costs.  In addition, the Company may use the service of its officers and directors to solicit proxies, personally or by telephone, without additional compensation.

Voting Securities

Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 28, 2014February 9, 2015 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to vote at the AnnualSpecial Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.  As of the Record Date, there were approximately 38,938,436450,696,129 shares of common stock of the Company, issued and outstanding and entitled to vote representing approximately 346343 holders of record.  Shareholders may vote in person or by proxy.  Each holder of shares of common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of stock held on the proposalsproposal presented in this Proxy Statement.  The Company’s bylaws provide that a majority of all the shares of stock entitled to vote, whether present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the AnnualSpecial Meeting.  The enclosed Proxy reflects the number of shares that you are entitled to vote.  Shares of common stock may not be voted cumulatively.

Voting of Proxies

All valid proxies received prior to the AnnualSpecial Meeting will be voted.  The Board of Directors recommends that you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the AnnualSpecial Meeting.  To vote by proxy, you must fill out the enclosed Proxy, sign and date it, and return it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.  Voting by proxy will not limit your right to vote at the AnnualSpecial Meeting if you attend the AnnualSpecial Meeting and vote in person.  However, if your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you must obtain a proxy executed in your favor, from the holder of record to be able to vote at the AnnualSpecial Meeting.

1

Revocability of Proxies

All Proxies which are properly completed, signed and returned prior to the AnnualSpecial Meeting, and which have not been revoked, will be voted in favor of the proposalsproposal described in this Proxy Statement unless otherwise directed. A shareholder may revoke his or her Proxy at any time before it is voted either by filing with the Secretary of the Company, at its principal executive offices located at 6650 Via Austi Parkway,9480 South Eastern Ave, Suite 140,205, Las Vegas, NV 89119, a written notice of revocation or a duly-executed Proxy bearing a later date or by attending the AnnualSpecial Meeting and voting in person.

Required Vote

Representation at the AnnualSpecial Meeting of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote, either in person or by a properly executed Proxy, is required to constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes, which are indications by a broker that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter, will be counted as “represented” for the purpose of determining the presence or absence of a quorum. Under the Nevada Corporation Law, once a quorum is established, shareholder approval with respect to a particular proposal is generally obtained when the votes cast in favor of the proposal exceed the votes cast against such proposal.

1


In the election of our Board of Directors, shareholders are not allowed to accumulate their votes. Shareholders are entitled to cast a vote for each of the openings on the Board to be filled at the Annual Meeting. The five nominees receiving the highest vote totals will be elected as our Board of Directors. For approval of the proposed ratification of our independent registered accountant, the votes cast in favor of the proposal must exceed the votes cast against the proposal. Accordingly, abstentions and broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the election of the Board of Directors or the ratification of the independent public accountants. Further, the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of our common stock entitled to vote at and present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required to approve the advisory vote on executive compensation (Proposal 3).
The advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensation (Proposal 4) that receives a plurality (that is, the largest number) of votes cast will be the preference selected by shareholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of this advisory vote.

The approval of the Name Change (Proposal 1) and the Authorized Share Increase (Proposal 5) requires2) each require the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stockCommon Stock that are entitled to vote.  Abstentions and broker non-votes are not affirmative votes and therefore will have the same effect as a vote against such proposal.
 
If a broker or other financial institution holds your shares in its name and you do not provide your voting instructions to them, then that firm has discretion to vote your shares for certain routine matters. Proposal 2, the ratification of the selection of our independent registered public accountants to audit our consolidated financial statements for 2014, is a routine matter.
However, theThe broker or other financial institution that holds your shares in its name does not have discretion to vote your shares for non-routine matters. The approval of the election of directors (Proposal 1), the advisory vote on executive compensation (Proposal 3), the advisory votevotes on the frequency of the advisory vote on executive compensationName Change (Proposal 4)1) and the vote on the Authorized Share Increase (Proposal 5)2) are non-routine matters and the firm that holds your shares in its name may not vote on this itemthese items absent your instruction. When a firm votes a client's shares on some but not all of the proposals at the AnnualSpecial Meeting, the missing votes are referred to as “broker non-votes.” Those shares will be included in determining the presence of a quorum at the AnnualSpecial Meeting, but are not considered “present” for purposes of voting on the non-routine items.
 
Shareholders List
 
For a period of at least ten days prior to the AnnualSpecial Meeting, a complete list of shareholders entitled to vote at the AnnualSpecial Meeting will be available at the principal executive offices of the Company located at 6650 Via Austi Parkway,9480 South Eastern Ave, Suite 140205, Las Vegas, NV 8911989123 so that shareholders of record may inspect the list only for proper purposes.

We are asking our shareholdersPrior to filing the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation reflecting the Name Change, we must first notify FINRA by filing the Issuer Company Related Action Notification Form no later than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated record date of the Name Change.  Our failure to provide advisory approvalsuch notice may constitute fraud under Section 10 of the compensation of the Named Officers, as described in the “Executive Compensation” section of this Proxy Statement. While this vote is advisory, and not binding on the Company, it will provide information to our Board and Compensation Committee regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation policies and practices, which the Compensation Committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation for the fiscal year ending 2015 and beyond.

This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives the Company’s shareholders the opportunity to endorse or not endorse our executive compensation program and policies through the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation of the Company’s Named Officers, as disclosed pursuant to compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission located in the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement, and the accompanying executive compensation table and narrative discussions, is hereby APPROVED.”
The vote on this Proposal 3 is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the Compensation Committee, or the Board. The vote will not be construed to create or imply any change to the fiduciary duties of the Company or the Board, or to create or imply any additional fiduciary duties for the Company or the Board.  However, the Board and the Compensation Committee value input from shareholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future executive compensation decisions. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present or represented and entitled to vote either in person or by proxy is required to approve this Proposal 3.

POTENTIAL FOR DILUTION TO THE OWNERSHIP OF EXISTING SHAREHOLDERSAND OTHER EFFECTS OF PROPOSALS 5PROPOSAL 2

If Proposal 52 is approved, the additional authorized shares of Common Stock may be issued for such consideration, cash or otherwise, at such times and in such amounts as the Board may determine without further shareholder approval, except to the extent that shareholder approval is required by applicable laws, rules or regulations.
 
The additional shares of Common Stock to be authorized by adoption of the proposed amendment to our Articles of Incorporation would have rights identical to our currently outstanding Common Stock. The Authorized Share Increase will not change the number of shares of stock outstanding, nor will it have any immediate dilutive effect or change the rights of current holders of our Common Stock. However, to the extent that the additional authorized shares are issued in the future, they may dilute the percentage equity ownership of existing shareholders and, depending on the price at which they are issued, may also dilute earnings and book value on a per share basis. The Company’s shareholders have no preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares of Common Stock when issued, which means that current shareholders do not have a prior right to purchase any newly-issued shares in order to maintain their proportionate ownership of the Company’s Common Stock. Assuming full conversion of the Notes, and notwithstanding any terms of the Notes that provide no such holder will own more than 4.99% of the Company’s Common Stock, the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to conversion of the Notes is 6,360,034,166, equivalent to 93.18% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, assuming no other issuances of Common Stock.

POSSIBLE ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF PROPOSAL 52

Common Stock. The proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock could, in some situations, have the effect of discouraging unsolicited takeover attempts or inhibiting the removal of incumbent management and may limit the opportunity for shareholders to dispose of their shares at the higher price generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal.  For example, the issuance of the newly authorized shares of Common Stock could be used to discourage persons from attempting to gain control of the Company by diluting the voting power of shares then outstanding or increasing the voting power of persons who would support the Board in a potential takeover situation, including by rendering a transaction proposed by such persons more costly, or by preventing or delaying a proposed business combination that is opposed by the Board of Directors of the Company although perceived to be desirable by some shareholders.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock as of March 11, 2015 by (a) each of the Company's directors and executive officers, (b) all of the Company's directors and executive officers as a group and (c) each person known by the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of its outstanding common stock.
