    Great place to learn about the railroad's history in Minot! See historic photos, documents and antiques, including RR switching panel, crossing signs & lights, benches, ticket counter, engine bells and whistles, hats & uniforms. There are scale model trains and a play area for kids. There is also a small gift shop. Can even see a photo of Minot's namesake, Henry Minot. Passionate staff looks forward to answering questions and can tell you why Minot is the "Magic City!"
