The Nevada City Depot was built on this site in 1964 to the Great Northern Railroad standard plans.

It is the same as the depot in Hugo, Minnesota, where Charles Bovey often visited as a little boy.

This is one end of the Alder Gulch Short Line Railroad.

Visitors can see many old rail cars and engines around the depot.
