Railroad History

Octagon House - Dates back to 1867.  This unique eight-sided structure was quite a showplace in its time.  

Triangle School - This 1857 building contains many of the original furnishings and school pieces.  The last class graduated from it in 1948.

Railroad Depot - Originally built in 1923 and was the passenger depot for the C&NW and is furnished with many authentic pieces.  Alongside the depot is a Soo Line Caboose which was built in 1888 and near the depot is a 1968 C&NW Caboose.

Village Chapel - This building was originally called the "Three Pines School".  In 1949 it was turned into a church.  It has been re-furnished and is available for weddings.

Log Cabin - This cabin was built around 1850.  It was dismantled from a farm and rebuilt at the edge of the village.  

Soo Line and CNW Caboose are next to depot.  Soo Line caboose #138 was built in 1888 and CNW caboose #11153 was built of steel in 1968.

A Locomotive with a 300 horse power diesel was the most recent addition.
