The Lake Superior Railroad Museum & Train Ticket Office are open daily from 10am-5pm.
Tickets for 2025 will go on sale in February.

All aboard for train excursions on the North Shore Scenic Railroad. History comes alive on the Lakefront line during the summer and autumn seasons.  Trains depart the historic Duluth Union Depot for a trip through downtown Duluth, Canal Park, along the shore of Lake Superior and deep into the majestic north woods. Fully narrated tours tell the history of Duluth, the harbor, and the stories of the railroads that built northern Minnesota and Wisconsin.

A limited number of excursions are still operating for the remainder of October. Then there will be no excursions until late November, when the Christmas City Express begins.

One weekend only: October 26 & 27 (Sat/Sun) for 2.5 hour excursions up the North Shore and back. Tickets on sale now.
