According to a 2000 estimate, the state of Nevada possesses a total of 1,916 miles of railroads. Carson City, the state's capital, is well-connected through a developed network of railways. One of the prime railway service providers is Amtrak, which offers trains mostly to the northern Nevada locations.

The Northern Railroad of Nevada was established in the 20th century specifically to connect to the city of Ely, where huge coal mines were located. Today, it is one of the state's most important links. Other equally significant railroads of Nevada are as follows:
