I was thinking that maybe the recreation of the Nonsuch and Deptford Docks at the Museum could be world-class. It is the main reason the Museum gets a 3-star rating from the Michelin Guide. Anyone from anywhere would be impressed by the opportunity to board the Nonsuch as well as by the dramatic mood of the room it is in, which is only improved by the impressive collection of Hudson Bay Company artifacts that was added a few years ago. Also it connects Winnipeg into an important part of world history.

Another thing would be the railway yards, which are jaw-dropping for railway buffs.

I agree completely that overuse of the "world class" designation is embarrassing (we get it here in Toronto as well). So I tried to define it in a very restrictive way for this purpose.
