Old Gunflint Rail Road
Great current video of the path of the old Port Arthur Duluth and Western Rail Road around Gunflint Lake. The Rail Road was built to transport the iron ore from the Paulson mine to Port Arthur Canada.
The Gunflint Trail History project intends to bring together the many historical references to the Gunflint that have been written and to encourage others to expand on this written record. Among the areas, along the Trail we are looking for written histories of are- individual Lakes, Businesses, Logging and Mining Activities, Fur Trading, and interesting individuals. If you have a history you would like to have included please email it to bct@boreal.org.
