Talk:Brush Street Station

Second Station edit

Apparently, there was commuter stop at a second location at the Renaissance Center after the demolition of the original Brush Street Station. Does anyone have any information on that stop/station (i.e. how many platforms existed? Where exactly was the second station?)? Because, that would be important info to add to this article. Commuter service was maintained to this area until nearly the mid-80's. --Criticalthinker (talk) 06:13, 30 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

LS&MS edit

Mackensen, curious as to why you removed LS&SM given that this was one of the major railroads that served the station? I'm genuinely confused. In fact, LS&MS served the station from its creation in 1869 until the railroad was bought in 1914, and was the station's largest tenant, I believe. There is no station in Detroit more associated with Brush Street Station than LS&MS. --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:37, 21 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

  • I'm just unsure of the wisdom of a succession template for a railroad that ceased serving the station over 100 years ago. There's a broader question of showing LS&MS succession as opposed to the New York Central Railroad. This was the only station article which had LS&MS templates on it.
