Lake Superior Railroad Museum & North Shore Scenic Railroad
Lake Superior Railroad Museum
A railroad museum in the 1892 historic depot, with North Shore scenic trains that run along the lakeshore.
The museum is housed in the St. Louis County depot, built in 1892. Inside, dozens of steam locomotives, a rotary snowplow, and luxurious passenger cars are on display, and visitors can climb aboard. The North Shore Scenic Railroad departs from here, running along the lakeshore to Two Harbors or on shorter round trips. It operates in summer and autumn, and fall-color and holiday-themed trips require advance booking. Museum admission is about $18, and a combined ticket with a train ride is better value.
