Do's and Dont's of Railroading
This is an article I was sent but I edited it to remove the expletives and make it viewable by everyone. I thought it was worth sending after a clean-up and edit.. Let's start with some DON'Ts. 1) A train is really, really big. Can we all accept that? Not even your Ram 2500 / F350 / Hummer / C3500 i...

Re: Detroit's old Michigan Central Train Station
2 reasons why they cannot tear it down:
Michigan Historical Register: Listed September 17, 1974
National Historical Register: Listed April 16, 1975
If the city is looking to "stomp out blight" how about cleaning up the burned houses and ruins from the riots.
Tear down the trash not the history.
