About the Program

The Nevada State Railroad Museum in Boulder City, at 1000 Boulder City Pkwy, is a state museum with outdoor rail displays and weekend train rides. Museum admission is free for children and $5 for adults, and veterans get in free with ID.

The museum is open Thursday to Monday from 9:00am to 4:00pm. Train rides run Saturdays and Sundays at 10:00am, 11:30am and 1:00pm from September to June, so there are no weekend rides in July and August. The admission list also shows $15 for adults and $6 for children, which looks like the train fare; confirm when you buy tickets. The grounds stretch about a mile, with displays spread out, so plan for walking and bring water.

The museum runs seasonal trains through the year, including the Halloween Express, Christmas Trains and Story Time Trains, and holiday tickets go on sale ahead of time on the museum site.

Teachers can book school visits on Thursdays and Fridays, with tours tied to Nevada K-12 standards, and Nevada public schools can ask about bus reimbursement. Train rides for school groups are available on request for $750. Call 702-486-4149 for general questions or (702) 486-4150 to schedule a tour.
