Lake Superior & Mississippi Railroad

The Lake Superior and Mississippi Railroad Company (LS&M) is incorporated as a

nonprofit 501 (c)(3) Company. We are an all volunteer passenger railroad dedicated to the 

preservation of railroad history and restoration of railroad artifacts.

 

The original LS&M built the first railroad into Duluth in the 1870's. The current LS&M 

reserves 5.2 miles of the this original railroad right-of-way into Duluth. The LS&M operates 

vintage railroad equipment to let the passenger experience rail transportation as it was in the 

early to middle 19th century. The LS&M is committed to providing the public with a 

historical and educational railroad experience.

 

All revenues generated from passenger fares and donations are used for restoration, 

maintenance and operation.
