Welcome a little one to the story of Michigan Central Railroad, a line that helped connect communities across Michigan and the Great Lakes. Chartered in 1832, the railroad reached Lake Michigan in 1849 and extended toward the Chicago area by 1852. Its history includes passenger journeys aboard the Wolverine and freight that served the region’s growing industries. This infant bodysuit makes a thoughtful choice for railroad families, Michigan history fans, or anyone sharing a love of trains and regional heritage with a new generation.
Michigan Central Railroad was chartered in 1832 to establish rail service between Detroit and St. Joseph, Michigan. Its predecessor, the Detroit and St. Joseph Railroad, began construction in Detroit in 1836. After state ownership and financial difficulties, the railroad was sold in 1846 to the newly incorporated Michigan Central corporation. The line reached Lake Michigan in 1849 and was extended through Indiana to the Chicago area by 1852. The railroad later operated in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Ontario. From about 1867 it was controlled by the New York Central Railroad. Its passenger trains included the Wolverine, and its routes carried timber, automobiles, and auto-related freight. New York Central became part of Penn Central in 1968, followed by Conrail. In 1995, Michigan Central was merged into United Railroad Corp., a Penn Central subsidiary. After the 1998 Conrail breakup, Norfolk Southern owned much of the former Michigan Central trackage. Amtrak continues to use portions of the former route between Chicago and Detroit.
