Duluth Union Depot

[Anonymous]

Can anyone tell me where I can obtain photos or diagrams of the Duluth Union Depot?

I am modelling the period 1950-1960 and want to include a model of the building as one terminus of my model railway.

A couple of possible sources come to mind. They are: doing a Google search, contacting the local historical society for Duluth city or its county, the Duluth public library, and whatever department monitors building codes for Duluth. Also, possibly the Library of Congress at:

Hope this helps,

Believe it or not, check Ebay, especially the postcard section. I've found dozens of rare depot photos by keeping an eye on the postcards.

I just did a quick search for "Duluth", and came up with 88 postcard views. No stations...today.

There is another depot in Duluth that today houses the historical society, a train museum (12 inches to the foot scale), and a children's museum.

Here's the web site -- looks like your place. You could go measure the sucker!
