Reviews
"Spent a Saturday afternoon touring the museum. What a treasure! Lots of fascinating history and impressive machinery. Good spot for a family trip. If you are a real history buff, you could easily kill a full day here"
"This was a super cool museum! There were a ton of old trains, many of which you can enter and see inside of them. The staff was nice and helpful. I don't know that much about trains but I had a great time and learned a lot. I imagine that the experience would also be great for someone who is very knowledgeable about trains too -- there are so many amazing things to see! I think children would have a fun time here as well since you can go inside so many of the train cars. I definitely recommend checking this museum out if you are in Duluth!"
"Great museum, its very interactive and informational, no readers fatique at all. While I do enjoy that people can interact with historical objects here more than other museums, I worry that some people might be too rough with them. Aside from that, one could easily spend an entire day there by yourself or with your family and not get bored. It does a great Job of going over Minnesota and Railway History, as well as Duluth's History. Definitely worth the admission price."
"This place will exceed my expectations! There are so many different types of trains to climb into, push buttons and pull levers and start the wheels turning on one if them. There are supplemental videos and informative signage. Besides the train there are little and gigantic accessories and pieces from salt 1900s (hand car, crane for picking up topped carts, dining cart and railway China collections, giant slag transport car, experience lantern display... And SO much more! Just when you think you've seen everything, you walk outside and there is an entire yard full of other trains!"
"Museum that allows visitors to explore inside trains and offers a 75 minute North Shore Railroad ride. Museum is $14 admission while the train ride is $22 but if you do both then they give you -$7 discount so it’s $29 total for both per person. North Shore train ride is better if you only have time/money to do one."
