This isn't just a print-out from a database but a comprehensive compendium of all proposed and operated common carrier and private rail lines in the state including street railways and lumbering roads and more.Contents include,
1)Introduction to Michigan Railroads (nice and short),
2)List of Companies (much more than just a list!),
3)Corporate Family Trees,
4)Chronology of Corporate Actions,
5)Corporate Actions by Year, and
6)County Listing of Companies.
I found only one road not listed - the Beaver Island Lumber Company.
Not only a great reference but interesting to read.
