Michigan - Gandy Dancer
Ann Arbor, MI - Once noted as "the finest station between Buffalo and Chicago", the majestic Michigan Central Depot deserves that commendation now more than ever as the Gandy Dancer. When Muer Seafood Restaurants bought the station house in 1969, it was the victim of disuse and too meager a budget to keep the once handsome building in repair. Now completely restored and adapted for use as a fine seafood restaurant, it is a busy center of activity at lunch and dinner as well as a beautiful architectural landmark.

Michigan - Mountain Town Station
Mt. Pleasant, MI - In 1995 partners saw potential in a historic Mt. Pleasant Railroad Depot, thus coming up with the idea to create a brewing company and steak house around the theme of a "Mountain Town Station". The floor, walls and rafters in the center portion of the station are original, although they are covered with new materials. The northern most telegraph office projection towards the track is the original, the south two are copies. The overhang, roof pitch and knee braces under the eaves all reflect the old Ann Arbor Railroad heritage. Mt. Pleasant's Depot never looked this good. The restaurant boasts a different environment form the depot days with air-conditioned, comfortable surroundings, and attentive service.

Michigan - Negaunee Union Station Depot
The Union Station depot was built in 1910 and serviced the Chicago Northwestern and Duluth South Shore train line until the mid to late 1960's. After that point, the Union Station changed hands many times, but sat vacant and fell into severe despair. It was purchased in 2001 by its present owners and over that past four years underwent an extensive renovation and once again is open for business. The Union Station boasts 2,500 square feet and has at your disposal three bathrooms, a full kitchen, sauna and sleeps up to eight, or it could accommodate a party up to 100 people for your intimate event. The Union Station has an atmosphere full of character and charm and is sure to please. So whether you are planing an overnight stay or a party, your evening at the Union Station will be one to remember. We look forward to hosting your stay.

Motels for Train Watchers
The original "Motels for Train Watchers" printed guide was the creation of our friend, Ken Bordelon, who compiled a listing of hotels, motels and inns located directly on rail lines in the United States with views of the tracks from at least some of the rooms. With his help (namely, his August 1998 list) and good wishes, we have brought this information to the Internet.
