Hands On History Experiences

Time stopped here. It’s as if the workers went to lunch and never came back. They left behind a complete railroad, now a National Historic Landmark; the grounds include over 70 buildings, structures and 30 miles of track.

This is not your typical museum.
Here you experience the history – Hands On!

About Nevada Northern Railway

It is the last of its kind, the sole survivor of a grand era in the Silver State. Now a National Historic Landmark, the Nevada Northern Railway Museum takes you back to a time when the iron horse ruled the rails.

It is America’s best-preserved standard-gauge short line and a complete rail facility.
