Nevada Northern No. 93

Nevada Northern No. 93 is a 2-8-0 "Consolidation" type steam locomotive built by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) in 1909 for the American Smelters Securities Co. to haul ore trains on the Nevada Northern Railway.
93 was sold to Nevada Consolidated Copper in May 1920 when the company took over operation of the ore line.
In 1952, three of the original four locomotives supplied by ALCO in 1909 were scrapped, but 93 was kept as back up motive power.
In 1961, Kennecott Copper donated the locomotive to the White Pine Public Museum, where it went on open air display.
In 1990, after twenty-nine years on static display at the White Pine Public Museum, 93 was traded by the White Pine Historical Railroad Foundation, along with all of the museum's railroad equipment, to the Northern Nevada Railway Museum in exchange for the Cherry Creek Depot. In 1993, the locomotive began its second career hauling excursion trains.
Today, 93 is still in operating condition on the Nevada Northern Railway and is one of three operable locomotives on the railroad, the other two being locomotives 40 and 81.
