Currie is an unincorporated community in Elko County, Nevada, United States. It is often considered a ghost town, and its population is around 20. The town is named after Joseph Currie, who started a ranch there in 1885. Discovery of copper in the neighboring town of Ely prompted the building of a railroad from Ely to the Southern Pacific main-line, at Cobre, Nevada. Currie is the midpoint between the two towns. On March 22, 1906, the first passenger train from Cobre to Currie was operated. Between 1906 and 1941, approximately 4.6 million passengers passed through Currie on rail.

  • Currie es un área no incorporada en el Condado de Elko, Nevada, Estados Unidos; su población es cercana a los 20 habitantes, considerándose a veces como un despoblado.​ El pueblo se llama así debido a Joseph Currie, quien comenzó con un rancho en 1885. El descubrimiento de cobre en las cercanías del pueblo de Ely hizo que se construyera una estación entre Ely con la línea principal de Southern Pacific, en Cobre, Nevada. Currie está en el punto medio entre las 2 urbes. El 22 de marzo de 1906, fue cuando el primer tren entre Cobre a Currie operó; entre 1906 a 1941, aproximadamente 4.6 millones de pasajeros transportó esta línea. (es)
