As an independent, non-profit 501(c) historic foundation, the mission of preserving what is one of the last real American short-line railroads is on all of our shoulders.  Without your help and support the Nevada Northern Railway would be just a memory with a bit of overgrown, abandoned roadbed. Together, you, and the rest of the world-wide community that cares, have pitched in to make it "The most authentic, and best cared-for" railroad on the continent.

In September 2006, the Nevada Northern Railway complex at East Ely was designated a National Historic Landmark.  This was an earmark achievement for the museum.  With it comes an increased responsibility for stewardship of the property, but, unfortunately, no direct general funding from state or national resources.  Maintaining it as a unique portal back in time is the responsibility that each of us as members have.  It is up to all of us to sustain the Nevada Northern, now and into the future.

Your membership is vital to keep the museum in operation. Will you join the thousands of railfans and historians around the world in this cause? You can join or renew today by selecting a membership below. It only takes a few minutes.
