I would like to introduce Michigan Central Station. Asking their local grandma and grandpa in Detroit about the station would be the best.
It was the tallest railroad station in the world and the fourth tallest building in Detroit in 1913. The Michigan Central Station opened on December 26th, 1913; Automobile business was growing, expanding and bringing people from other states.
It was filled with the sounds of hellos and goodbyes, panting locomotives and screeching wheeled steel. January in 1988, the very last train deported from MCS to Chicago, it was just over 74 years after the first steamed in.

As the US is motorized society (especially in the countryside) and I’m not familiar with trains, he also helped me with the article!
