Three Rivers was a crossing of two railroad lines, the Michigan Central Air Line (Jackson to Niles) and the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Grand Rapids branch (Elkhart to Grand Rapids). The MC had a yard west of the crossing diamond which was maintained even after the Air Line was truncated west of here. The LS&MS also had a small yard here, north of the crossing.
