[Heartstrings]

SS Edmund Fitzgerald was an American Great Lakes freighter that sank in a Lake Superior storm on November 10, 1975, with the loss of the entire crew of 29. When launched on June 7, 1958, she was the largest ship on North America's Great Lakes, and she remains the largest to have sunk there.

1. In Duluth, at the Maritime Museum....

Near the lift bridge, are artifacts from the Edmund Fitzgerald. It left Duluth Harbor loaded with iron Ore from the Iron Range to Cleveland, to be processed into Steel.

A Great Lakes tragedy that will never be forgotten.
