The Nevada State Railroad Museum is kicking off the Fourth of July weekend with train rides and exhibits on Saturday. Then, Sunday and Monday, the museum will celebrate with a parade of trains at 9 a.m.
The famous 1875 Inyo steam locomotive and the Glenbrook will do demonstration runs and the historic 1910 McKeen Car and V&T Locomotive No. 25 will be in service for passengers and for a photographer’s delight from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Guests can purchase museum admission and single train ride tickets. For those who want the full-day experience, the museum offers an all-day pass with unlimited rides. The Warren Engine Co. will offer traditional holiday food and non-alcoholic beverages for sale during the festivities.
