The Nevada Northern Railway: * A registered National Historic Landmark. * Consisting of the original railway locomotives, rolling stock, track and buildings that served the copper mining region of Central Nevada for over a century. * All of this is being preserved by a not-for-profit historic foundation so you can come and enjoy a piece of American history.Track for the Nevada Northern Railway was laid over a century ago, connecting one of the largest copper mines in North America to the Transcontinental routes to the North. Today, several of the original steam locomotives that were ordered and delivered new to the railroad over a century ago are still in operation. The Nevada Northern Railway is the best-preserved example of a standard-gauge short-line left in North America.Come to Ely, NV and immerse yourself in historic railroad experiences: * 90 minute train rides * Walk around through the original maintenance shops and train yard * "Be the Engineer" experience where you actually run a locomotive, and drive a train * Railroad Reality Weeks * Special evening trains * Don't miss the annual Haunted Ghost Trains and Polar Express when they are in season.
