Cannonball 457

Cannonball 457

Built in 1912, this last remaining Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway steam locomotive – No. 457, the “Cannonball” – has been restored to reflect its appearance in the late 1920s. Surrounded by the Cannonball Gardens, the site also features a relaxing landscape of terraces and patios. The Educational Plaza tells stories of local railroad history and the Orphan Train. May-October; Saturday & Sunday 1 PM-4 PM. Other times by appointment.
