Trains Unlimited, Tours has a new tour scheduled for June 25-26, 2007: the Nevada Northern Steam Spectacular. This is a Railfan/Tourist tour open to everyone. The Nevada Northern Railroad is the last Nevada Bonanza mining line left and perhaps the best preserved shortline in the old Wild West. This railroad has been preserved in its original state, from the workshops, stations, yards, rolling stock and motive power in East Ely, Nevada.
This two day event will feature photo run-bys each day. Although this event is being operated for the Garden Scale Convention attendees (being held in Las Vegas June 27-30, 2007) this tour is open to everyone, not just conventioneers. On June 25 charter motorcoaches depart from the Hotel Riveria in Las Vegas for the journey north to East Ely. Upon arrival in East Ely, transfer to the waiting mixed train pulled by No. 93 for an afternoon run on the Keystone Line running up to the old copper mine. Plenty of photo run-bys will be operated in scenic locations both directions. Upon arrival back in East Ely there will be time to explore the historic old workshops and running shed. After the workshop visits, guests will transfer to nearby lodging. On June 26, board another charter train at the historic East Ely depot for a run north on the mainline and then up the hiline to the site of the old KCC copper mill at McGill. Again, photo run-bys will be operated for the cameras. Upon arrival back in East Ely guests board charter motorcoaches for the return journey south to Las Vegas. Prices are $495 ppdo. Single supplement is $49 and children 4-12 are $345.
