Finance Office
The Auditor of the Nevada Northern Railroad worked from this office. The high desk and office machines, including typewriter, comptometer, and mimeograph machine are remnants from World War I era business.
This room also tells the incredible story of Carmine Aquafondata, who was tragically killed on the tracks in 1923, and his eldest son, Mike Fondi, who came to work at the railroad and eventually became the Auditor.
