The Nevada State Railroad Museum in Carson City showcases northern Nevada’s rich railroading heritage. Located in the heart of the state’s capital city, the museum features an impressive collection of railroad artifacts, documents, and equipment, along with related exhibits highlighting how the railroad changed the once hostile territory into an important contributor to the growing United States during the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century. The Inyo locomotive is the signature piece of the Nevada State Railroad Museum, one of the nation’s oldest operating steam locomotives and has appeared in several movies and on television.
