About Rand

Rand is a ghost town in Mineral County, Nevada, remembered today mainly as a former railroad stop. It once served as a station along the Carson and Colorado Railway, giving it a practical identity tied to rail transit through the region.

Very little documented remains exist at the site. Visitors drawn to Nevada's historic railroad corridors may find the location of interest, though what survives on the ground is minimal. The honest reality is that Rand is a place for the historically curious rather than those expecting dramatic ruins.
