Exciting news to report! Cuyuna Country Heritage Preservation Society has completed the merger with the Soo Line Depot Museum, and together they have become: Cuyuna Iron Range Heritage Network! With this new merger, the Soo Line Depot Museum will be continuously refined and displays will be changed regularly to offer a variety of interesting and educational experiences for the entire family! A new museum park recently named, the Gene & Joan Foote Soo Line Depot Museum Park, will offer many new displays and interactive adventures for kids, picnic tables, and an interpretive walking path! ![]() Stop in soon to visit the newest addition to the park . . . a remarkable creation by local artist, Jeff Kreitz. Jeff was commissioned to make this Soo Line Railroad Bench by the children of Dick & Kaye Gillman in memory of their father, who was a key member and past president of the Cuyuna Country Heritage Society, and a long-time railroad man. Richard Gillman died on July 1, 2008, and all will miss his good humor and hard work for this Society.
