Hot Stove Night: 50th Anniversary Presentation The Early Years

50th Anniversary Presentation: The Early Years

By David Schauer and Tim Schandel

Enjoy this slide show presentation on the history of the Lake Superior Railroad Museum and the Lake Superior Transportation Club.

The “Early Years” presentation will feature images and stories from the start of the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in the 70’s to the early 1990s. Included will be the Lake Superior & Mississippi’s formative years and the work of the Lake Superior Transportation Club, which pre-dates the museum. Photos of volunteers and staff who helped make the museum what it is today will also be featured.

Without the work of these early museum pioneers, the Lake Superior Railroad Museum would never be what USA Today voted the “BEST Transportation Museum in America.” Nor would today’s North Shore Scenic Railroad be the destination attraction it has become.

Tuesday, April 11th in the Lake Superior Railroad Museum at 6:30pm. Admission is FREE for Lake Superior Railroad Museum and St. Louis County Historical Society members and their guests. Use the North Shore Scenic Lobby entrance.

Live stream of this event will be available today (4/11), starting around 6pm… The show will begin at 6:30pm CST as scheduled.
