Station: Chandler, MI

Chandler was a new station on the Lake Shore's Fayette Division, between Flat Rock and Slocum's Junction. This was the crossing of the C&CS's Fayette Division and the LS&MS's Detroit Branch. It was about 1/2 mile west of what would later be called Slocum Junction.  It was named in 1879. [DFP-1879-1109]
