    We enjoyed it. It…read morewas $5 per adult to enter. There was a gift shop with restrooms prior to museum area entry. The museum was comprised of a single floor with a very large center space flanked by a couple of smaller rooms. There was information, photos, placards and artifacts for: - The depot - The railways that once served the area - The ore loading piers - Ore mining - Area war veterans (VFW) It took us about 40 minutes but one could easily spend a couple hours here.

    My husband and I were taking the Lake Superior Scenic North Shore drive and one of our stops was…read moreTwo Harbors. We had visited the Depot in Duluth and seen the North Shore Scenic Railroad departure point, so we were looking forward to visit the Two Harbors Depot Museum, where the NSSR train stops for its northernmost point. The depot is located in the 1907 headquarters of the Duluth and Iron Range Railway Company. It's been charmingly restored, with ticket booths and telephone operator stations still intact. There are several different areas of displays, covering everything from military service to local culture at the turn of the last century. The museum has a gift shop and bathrooms available. Be aware of the timing of your visit; if you arrive at the same time the NSSR train does, there will be many passengers lining up to use those bathrooms, as the train is historic and does not have lavatory facilities. We were able to see the train pull into the station and, after its rest stop, hear that most lovely sound--a train whistle signaling "All Aboard!" The Depot Museum is definitely worth a stop for all visitors to Two Harbors!

    Beautiful art and home in Duluth. The Tweed mansion has a lot of history in Duluth and was…read morestuffed with art when UMD owned the home.

If there were no paintings on the walls, you would not think this a gallery space. There is not a lot on display so spending longer than an hour here would be unlikely. One painting floored me. On the second floor near some bookshelves and a few desk chairs sits Gilbert Davis Munger's large-scale painting, 'Niagara Falls Showing the Canadian and American Views', from 1903. There is an almost endless stream of landscape paintings featuring Niagara Falls scattered in museums across the country and this is one of the best that I've seen. The grand size of the painting made me feel like I was standing at the base of the Falls. If I saw nothing else here, I would have still left happy. There are old master paintings from Mr. Tweed's collection on display in addition to various prints and lithographs. There are also some contemporary items, including Naomi Bebo's 'Beaded Mask', a 2010 work featuring beads and deer hide on an Iraqi gas mask. The most elegant item on display is a high heel shoe covered in birch bark by Cynthia Holmes. Titled 'Primal Donna', it's a modern day advancement on old wooden clogs.

    Went on the Duluth Zephyr train ride this past weekend (11am - Sunday) with the family. We also…read morebought tickets to check out the train museum which did not disappoint. The tickets are discounted if you are taking a train ride. There are so many trains to not only check out on the outside but a lot of them you can climb aboard and check out the inside. How cool! They have the oldest known snow plow train in the world. So cool. Train Rides: Especially during the changing of the leaves time of year (autumn) make sure to book your tickets early & online cause certain train rides do sell out! The train ride was 75 minutes and it was fun to check out different train cars and the lower and upper decks of the coach trains. The leaves are starting to change color and they looked great. There's a place to buy treats inside the museum and on the train cars. You're also allowed to bring your own snacks and drinks on board too! Other than a huge chocolate brownie that was left on the floor of our seating area on the train that I cleaned up. We had a good time and even moved cars at the halfway point to get another view. Parking - there is free parking along the backside of the train museum if you score a spot otherwise there is a huge parking garage right next door.

    Great spot for kids or other train enthusiasts! We took our 4yo and his 75yo grandfather and they…read moreboth had a blast Lots of cool trains and history! They let you go on a bunch of trains. Also there were some sweet wooden train tables for kids who need a different kind of train experience. Fun times! Also we went on a trip with the railroad and it was very fun!
