First class under the glass

By Josh Miller

The golden age of railroading isn’t just remembered here… its back again!

The railroads have a long history of delivering a first-class experience for their passengers. Throughout the generations, guests have been treated to fine dining, deluxe sleeping accommodations, and exquisite service. At the North Shore Scenic Railroad, I’m proud that we can offer at least a small taste of this legacy from the golden-age, first class experiences.

We are excited to be offering first class service options on almost all of our trains this summer. This includes our Dome Car seating, lounge space, fine dining experiences, and some extra service options for those interested in pay-

It’s the story of a young girl traveling by train to visit her grandparents in Duluth on Christmas Eve. The story is performed in the Railroad Museum at the Depot starting with live music and carolers against a backdrop of decorated trains and storefronts. Then take a train ride past the lights of Bentleyville and along the edge of Lake Superior with hot cocoa and cookies. A special guest will visit and have a magical gift for every passenger!

Later in August, guests can ride “first class” on the evening train, and have a fine dining fourcourse meal prepared by the best chefs Duluth has to offer, all while enjoying moving scenery out the window. The Elegant Dinner Train runs Fridays and Saturdays throughout late summer into fall, and gives guests a unique dining experience found nowhere else in the Twin Ports.

These are just a few of many options for excursions on our rail- road that make it a truly unique attraction here in Duluth. We hope you will come back later this year or in the years to come and try one of our many excursion options.
