The Nevada Northern Railway Museum is a railroad museum located in Ely, Nevada and operated by a historic foundation dedicated to the preservation of the Nevada Northern Railway.
Museum activities include restoration and operation of historic railroad equipment and various hands on experiences and a variety of special events including seasonal trains for halloween and santa-themed trains. This is one of the few places in the world where visitors can actually operate a steam locomotive, but this experience requires some advanced planning.
