Nestled in Nevada City, CA in the Sierra Nevada Mountains is the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum. Founded in 2003, this fascinating museum is dedicated to the preservation of one of California’s most famous narrow gauge railroads, the Nevada County Narrow Gauge, which ran from 1876 until its abandonment in 1942.

A variety of narrow gauge equipment can be seen operating up and down the museum’s line out of the Nevada City depot, including Railbus 97 “Donna Jeanne”, and privately owned Antelope and Western Porter 0-4-0T 1. The crown jewel of the collection is newly restored NCNG 5, an 1875 Baldwin 2-6-0, making its first public runs in Nevada City following its debut at the Great Western Steam Up in July 2022.

In addition to NCNG rolling stock, there is also equipment from the West Side Lumber and Southern Pacific to help interpret the story of 3-foot gauge railroading and the importance it once had in the state of California. Most impressive is the line back up to the museum, which reaches 7% just before the Nevada City Depot. You will find the volunteers at the museum to be a dedicated, passionate group of people, making amazing things happen at this gem in the Sierra Foothills.

Current hours of operation: Saturday and Sunday, 10am - 4pm
