Membership
The Lake Superior Railroad Museum (LSRM) is one of the largest and most respected railroad museums in the country. Your Membership supports the museum’s efforts to restore, preserve and interpret and display its significant collection of historic railroad artifacts. To apply or renew a membership, just visit this page and sign up today!
The museum is a non-profit organization which relies on the continued support of our members. People all over the United States and the world are a part of this museum in Duluth, Minnesota. If you are interested in preserving the rich history of the Twin Ports area, consider membership today. Perks include discounted train rides, free entrance to the museum, special member-only events, and much more.
Annual Renewal Schedule: Any membership purchased lasts for one year from the purchase date, so you have one year from the point of purchase to use the benefits associated with the membership (so they can be used next summer if you purchase in the autumn for example). Any membership renewal done early, will renew from the expiration date however, effectively giving bonus days/weeks/months if it is renewed early.
