I don't know if this link I've pasted onto this message will work but it's worth a try. It's in Michigan. it's a small but quaint structure and the owner claims it still has the original chalkboard mounted inside. Check out the minimum bid.

Jamestown was on which line?
I know some Michigan interurban cars are preserved at IRM and in Ohio. Given the state of things, I think it might be a significant improvement to the property at the Northern Ohio Railway Museum. If I recall right, the group at Mount Clements MI is on leased government land.
Looks like it could fit on a flatbed, and could be trimmed down to not be an oversized load.

What Michigan interurban cars are preserved in Ohio? The only Michigan interurbans I can think of offhand - besides a few pieces of work equipment in Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania - are Michigan Electric #28 at IRM and Grand Rapids Grand Haven & Muskegon #8 in Coopersville, MI. It's a shame none of the big Detroit United cars survived.

Frank,

Shame on you! What about the Michigan interurban freight trailer being restored as Lake Shore Electric 810 - also at IRM??
