Nevada Northern Railway Museum, Railway museum in Ely, United States.

The Nevada Northern Railway Museum occupies the East Ely Yards, a preserved early 20th-century railroad complex. Its collection includes three original steam locomotives, an electric locomotive, diesel-electrics, and freight and passenger cars from the 1910s. The 1907 Mission Revival depot has a rusticated stone ground floor, a stuccoed second story, and separate men's and women's waiting rooms.

The Nevada Northern Railway was developed in the first decade of the 20th century by the Nevada Consolidated Copper Company, which was taken over by Kennecott Copper in 1933. Passenger service ended in 1941, and the East Ely Depot served as Kennecott offices until 1985. In 1983 Kennecott donated the yards to a local non-profit, and the state acquired the depot in 1990 for the museum. The complex became a National Historic Landmark District on September 27, 2006.

The museum tells the story of how railways connected remote mining communities and shaped the economy of the desert region. Visitors can see how trains were central to daily life and work in this part of Nevada.

The museum occupies the East Ely Yards, where the depot, shops and stored cars stand close together, so the grounds are explored on foot. Operating a steam locomotive yourself must be arranged well in advance. Trains run on a short segment from Ruth to Ely; a $10 million federal grant announced on October 14, 2021, is to reopen the line to McGill.

Locomotive #40, the official State Locomotive of Nevada, hauled the Olympic flame before the 2002 Salt Lake City Opening Ceremony, triple-heading with two Heber Valley engines from Soldier Hollow to Heber City, Utah. The museum also keeps the oldest operating tank car and the oldest operating coal-fired steam crane on any American railroad.
