My trip to the Nevada Northern. {Ely NV}

My Dad was able to take me on business trip with him to the Nevada Northern Railroad. We drove to Denver CO there we hoped on a plane and flew to Salt Lake City. The next morning we got up and drove the three hours to Nevada Northern. We were able to stay at the NN for 3 days. The funnest opportunity was I got to drive the steam locomotive number 40 in the yard!!! The 40 was the only Steam Locomotive for those 3 days and a SD9 diesel. Over all if was the funnest trip i have ever been on. It is something I will never forget. Hope you enjoy the many videos and pictures.


Here is the SD9 diesel I was able to ride.

The 93 was unable to run that weekend. It needed to have a boiler wash.

Here is the #40 locomotive.


Here is 40 pulling out of the yard.
