Redding - most of the miners are jetties and trade their gold for Jet from New Reno.
As for NCR, they need gold from Redding, but are unable to bypass neither the geographical nor 'political' barrier, which New Reno represents, so they have to deal with the Families.
VC are quite introverted in the politics and indealistic, so they will rather trade with NCR or Hub than New Reno.
As for mine interests as crafter, i don't even dwell near NCR due to high demand on money and supplies.
Too much people for me.

How much is the gold valuable to VC? They need more uranium for Gecko power plant from Broken Hills than gold.

well, computer parts, or other parts that need gold.
And about the uranium, this is 2241 atm, the chosen one have not even been in VC yet and helped with the gecko problem. So atm Gecko is the one that should be trading with New Reno but I am not sure that VC would approve of that (keeping the power plant running, the leader do want shut it down rather than to keep it :P) And since VC controls the trainstation up there it should be really hard for gecko to trade by using the train I guess.
I'd rather see one of the developers to come over here and correct me in anything :P

Maybe that or dental prosthetics, as in every wealthy communities, implants...but perhaps also as status symbols, export currency (don't know, if VC trades with someone else in the East or North), because it's shiny, etc.

Well, Gecko will be always the mutated sixth toe on VCs foot, even if a useful one. They depend on the power for their almighty laser cannons, facilities and solariums. And you said right, if the ghouls want to trade goods brought by train, they have to ask their neighbours first.

Yeah, i'd like to hear their opinion to this, too.

not sure on if they are very dependent upon their powerplant since lynette wants it to be permanently shut down :/ There is a possibility that they have their own reactor or something inside the vault, giving them power.

They have a reactor covering their basic supply.
Yet still, they also draw power from Gecko, as far as i know from Fallout 2. What reason would they have to keep the ghouls at Gecko and not eradicating them as possible threat/nasty inconvenience? (apart from being humane)
If you modify the plant with Gordon's holodisc, the ending for Gecko is being a slave town for VC.
The plant is really handy for them.
Anyway, i guess it's only logical that NCR will build the railway there, between raiders and mutants, to get a safe quick gold delivery. At last, New Reno don't trade Jet to NCR, but gold. Tandi don't get her wrinkled arms dirty. All the jet is being sold in northwest, where the workfolk needs to be controlled by chemical means, slaves included.
NCR gets the clean gold and can trade it to the Hoover Dam and whoever lives beyond the radioactive storms for ammo, technology and such stuff. Everyone in Wasteland is glad and happy.
But it's all empty talk, since miners are paid in Jet for hammering caps in FOnline. There's no gold in Redding and even if, it's a rare throwing and HtH item, nothing else. But then it should be called in the description "Redding, the main source for CAPS in the wasteland"
