Organized in 1878, the company carried forward a route connecting Detroit and Grand Haven, with a Grand Rapids station at Plainfield and East Leonard. Its story of reorganization, new ownership and 1928 consolidation captures the evolution of regional railroads. This ceramic ornament is a thoughtful keepsake for collectors who value the names and routes of the Great Lakes rail era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee Railway was a Michigan railroad formed in 1878 after the Detroit and Milwaukee Railroad entered receivership in 1875. The earlier Detroit and Milwaukee was a successor to the Detroit and Pontiac Railroad, among the first railroads organized in Michigan. The Great Western Railway of Canada had gained financial control of the Detroit and Milwaukee in 1860 after it defaulted on debt payments. In 1878, Great Western purchased the railroad outright and refinanced its debts; the reorganized company took the name Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee Railway. Its 189-mile line ran from Detroit to Grand Haven on Lake Michigan’s eastern shore, with a Grand Rapids station at Plainfield and East Leonard. The Grand Trunk Railway of Canada acquired Great Western in 1882, bringing the railway under its ownership, though formal consolidation waited until 1928. That year, the company became part of the Grand Trunk Western Railroad, marking its transition from a separately named regional railway into a larger railroad system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHeart\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 500;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRound\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDiameter, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e3.21\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"word-break: break-word; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e2.80\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- 100% white ceramic construction — strong and durable\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Double-sided print with matte finish option\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Golden hanging string included\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- UV-decorated for lasting color\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Available in white or gold gift packaging (single ornament per pack)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Use a microfiber cloth to gently remove any dust or dirt build-up.
