Twin Ports Rail-To-Sail Connection
Lake Superior Railroad Museum 506 W. Michigan St., Duluth, Minnesota 55802
Zenith City Press and the Lake Superior Railroad Museum present “The Twin Ports Rail-to-Sail Connection,” an illustrated history presentation featuring Duluth historian Tony Dierckins. Adapted from Dierckins’s book, “Twin Ports Trains: The Historic Railroads of Duluth and Superior,” this talk traces the rise and decline of the “Head of the Lakes” as a vital commercial shipping center and illustrates the socioeconomic, cultural, and environmental impact that railroads, Great Lakes freighters, and the industries they served had on the region.
