Title	Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad in Nevada City, ca.1900
Description	Photograph of the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad in Nevada City, ca.1900. The two connected passenger cars stand back-to-back at center with the tracks lying in the foreground. "Nevada County Narrow Gauge" is written above the many windows on the side while a doorway can be seen on the end on the right. A rock wall and hedges stand behind the car with several house-like structures standing above. A fenced yard and trees can be seen in the background on the left.; Picture file card reads "The twenty-two mile long Railroad still operated since 1877, but now for freight only. When it was in full operation, it had two locomotives, two passenger cars, two baggage cars, and forty freight cars. The two passenger cars are shown on the siding many years ago and grass now grows up between the wheels".
