Save the date for the Missabe Railroad Historical Society’s Annual Convention in 2025. The Convention will be held in Duluth this year on August 1, 2 and 3

This year’s Convention will focus on the Duluth Docks and their history and operation.

We'll start at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum Friday night with heavy appetizers and a presentation. We have a block of rooms at the Radisson Duluth Harborview, where we'll assemble for breakfast on Saturday, followed by clinics from Dave Schauer, Bob Hanmer and others. Then we plan to board the Vista Queen for a private tour of the harbor with a focus on the Missabe and ore related history. Our banquet will be Saturday night at the LSRM in front of DM&IR 227 with a guest speaker. Sunday morning will include breakfast back at the Radisson and our Annual Meeting.

Make you plans to attend now! More details will be coming in the next month. If you choose to, you can book your room at the Radisson with this code https://www.choicehotels.com/reservations/groups/TO51Q0 (which holds a block at a special rate for the Convention) or call them and ask for the room block for Missabe Railroad Historical Society. A two night minimum is required for the reduced rate, and you must book by July 1, 2025 (or while supplies last). Other hotels are also available in the downtown Duluth area near the LSRM and Radisson.

See you in August!
