Time Line

1904. November. The D&M railway is about to erect its roundhouse at Cheboygan, having laid out the ground space for the same. The structure will be situated not far from the freight house, and will be built to accommodate four locomotives. The spur track to the dock will be pushed to completion this fall, the matter of difference between the company and the MCRR having been satisfactorily adjusted. [DFP-1904-1103]
