    We lived in Jackson, Michigan (some 75 miles west of Detroit) from 1950 to 1956. Once or twice a year my mom and I would take a morning train from Jackson to spend the day shopping in Detroit; we would return on the Twilight Limited, which left Detroit around 4:45 PM and arrived in Jackson at about 6:00PM. The station in Detroit was splendid, and very busy!

Plus you know, Commuter Rail that's been talked about/planned forever but has never taken off in any meaningful way but should!

    I moved to Oahu from Japan in 1977. I was sad there as no railway system here. My dad told me there was a track from Waianae to Haleiwa during early 1900 to transport sugarcane. Now there are no tracks. Waianae to Haleiwa was able to 4 wheel in the early 80’s, but it’s impassable now. I’ve been living here over 40 years, but never rode the Oahu Railway. There’s a story, at the and of Waianae side there was a Japanese man named “Yokohama” who maintained the points. That place is called the “Yokohama Bay Beach Park”. Aloha!
