It has been said that ALCO Locomotives are honorary steam locomotives. Here’s Locomotive 105, an RS-2 heading into the East Ely Depot. It’s quite obvious why she is considered an honorary steam locomotive. Locomotive 105 is used in excursion service on the Nevada Northern Railway. Under Locomotive 105’s long hood is a V-12 diesel engine developing 1,500 horsepower. And it’s interesting to note that on this locomotive the long hood is forward.

And this is just one of the exciting occurrences that you can experience when you visit the Nevada Northern Railway National Historic Landmark. Visit the railroad is an immersion experience.

We love the steam locomotives but operating a steam locomotive in the 21st century is very expensive. One of the bigger expenses is coal. The video shows us getting 26-tons of coal. The tenders of Locomotives 81 and 93 hold 12 tons of coal each. In other words that load will fill each tender ONCE! This is how the numbers break down. When either Locomotives 81 or 93 make the 14-mile round trip to Keystone, they will burn around 2,500 pounds of coal, just over a ton for the one trip. Our steam sch

Last year in celebration of the 150th Anniversary of the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, we double-headed our two steam locomotives, 40 and 93. It’s rare for us to double-head the locomotives but we did it in celebration of the event. Today, the celebration serves as a reminder that we as a country have overcome huge challenges!

The Nevada Northern Railway is a National Historic Landmark. There are heritage railroads with original buildings, railroad cars and steam locomotives, but what sets the Nevada Northern Railway apart and places it into a class by itself is its documentation. This collection represents the entire history of a railroad: from planning, through construction, operations, transition from steam to diesel, eventual closure and reopening as a historic site.

The Nevada Northern Railway National Historic Landmark is an amazing complex. I’m riding in the 1907 machine shop’s overhead crane from east to west. You can see Locomotives 93 and 81 back to back undergoing repairs. At the end of their service both locomotives were put on public display and sat outside for thirty years. No one ever thought that they would ever operate again! Well surprise, they were both returned to operation! As you can see, they are both getting repairs. Locomotive 93 was del

We will be firing up our steam crane for demonstrations on Sunday, May 26. The crane was purchased by the railroad in 1907. We restored it to operation in 2005. Having an operational steam crane is very helpful. We have used it in derailments and to take a roof off a building. We are firing it up for two reasons. The first, because it is just plan cool. The second, because we need to train our staff and volunteers on how to operate the crane. Restoring a piece of equipment to operation is just o
