Charlie Unbehaun posted five photos with the comment: "Here are some photos of the old Depot on South Ashley St. in downtown Ann Arbor, MI.  From a description from the Ann Arbor Library, the last passenger train that was boarded here was in 1950.  The rail line was the Toledo, Ann Arbor and Northern Michigan Railroad.  The line is still used for freight.  In the 1970s I lived right next to the line on a bit of a grade.  As I recall they would transport sand from up north to Toledo.  The depot is currently used for a Montessori school.  There is an old caboose next to it that is part of the school playground.  As I recall, it was originally moved there with the intention of it being used for a beauty parlor or a barber shop."
