Call to Action

The TRACKS ARE SAVED!

The City Council passed the rail with trail plan unanimously on November 25, 2019.
The LSMR would like to thank all those that supported keeping the tracks by writing to the mayor, City staff, and Duluth News Tribune over the past few years.
The focus of the LSMR now is to navigate the Super Fund Cleanup process and provide access to the river estuary all along our route as much as possible while this project gets underway. We do not have much information on how this may impact our excursions. We will keep you posted here on the web site and emails.

These two articles helped our supporters understand how the process started out and how we got to a place where the City has changed its plans. This is good news for the train and all that love our service to the area.
