Heritage North Museum
Thompson, Manitoba
A
museum to remember!
We are now a Star Attraction
with Travel Manitoba
In 1956, nickel
was discovered in the area and it was agreed by the province and INCO to
establish Thompson. That winter, 24 diesel powered tractor trains dubbed
the "Snowball Express" moved 300,000 tons of supplies around the clock from
Thicket Portage to Thompson.
In 1990, Heritage North Museum was incorporated. Our mission is to promote and preserve the heritage and
history relating to Thompson and area.
