Nevada Northern Railway
The Nevada Northern Railway National Historic Landmark is a primary driver of tourism in White Pine County. It is a historic treasure and an economic engine.
The Great Basin Heritage Area Partnership has supported numerous projects at the Nevada Northern Railway over the past five years. These include funding for the couplers essential to link railcars together, a shelter to protect visitors from the elements, remodeling the Depot platform for visitor safety, restoring historic “wigwag” signals, recreation of a historic “hand car” and “HY-Rail motor car,” and interior restoration of the historic McGill Depot.
