(Chelsea Update would like to thank Bob Milbrodt for the information in this story.)
This Monday, the Chelsea Kiwanis Club will hear from Jim Stormont from the Lost Railway Museum.
The recently opened Grass Lake venue asks us to imagine a time before paved streets, cars, and buses. In the early 1900’s, the electric interurban railway was the primary mode of public transportation. More than six railways intersected Jackson County delivering riders from Ann Arbor, Jackson, Battle Creek, and Lansing.
The club meeting begins each Monday at 6:15 p.m. in the St. Joseph Mercy Chelsea Hospital cafeteria, and the speakers begin at about 6:45 p.m. Everyone is invited to the club’s meetings to learn about Kiwanis.
