Review:
The Nevada Northern Railway offers an array of rides and activities that will attract and entertain visitors of all ages. One of their most popular rides takes passengers from East Ely, Nevada, up toward the Ruth Copper Mining District as they go up real mountain grades and through Robinson Canyon. Sometimes, younger passengers may even experience the thrill of getting held up by a band of outlaws – who also happen to be outstanding citizens of the community. There are many other event trains, such as the Polar Express in the winter and the Haunted Ghost Train in the fall. In addition to the train rides, passengers will also get to experience interesting events such as spending a night at the railroad, riding with an engineer, or having a spectacular photoshoot at the Nevada Northern Railway. Children ride free on the excursion trains Monday through Thursday.
