When Kennecott Copper Company employees were laid off suddenly in 1983, the Nevada Northern Railway shut down. This room remains exactly the way Nevada Northern Railway workers left it in 1983, providing a snapshot into history. It contains all the supplies the company was using the day they closed their doors.
