This abandoned building, between Capital Avenue Southwest and South McCamly Avenue, withstood nearly a century of thunder from nearby trains passing by. Built as a freight house in the 1890s for the the Detroit, Toledo & Milwaukee Railroad, the building was purchased by A.K. Zinn & Co. during the 1920s as a storage house. The words "Milling Co., Inc." are still readable on the sign under the gable, a reminder of a period during the 1950s when Bud's Best Milling Co., Inc., was located there. It was used as a warehouse by Zinn & Co. again when Bud's went out of business and was purchased by the Michigan Carton Co. in 1969. Long defunct, the DT&M Railroad was formed in 1883 and ran from Dundee to Allegan. Originally it was known as the Cincinnati, Jackson & Mackinaw Railroad. The line went through numerous small towns as it zig-zagged across southern Michigan. In our region, it went from Moscow to Hanover to Pulaksi, to Homer, then up to Eckford and Marshall, then to Ceresco. It then went to Battle Creek and northwards. An old railroad bed on the west side of Beadle Lake Road north of I-94 near Battle Creek marked the remains of the line in 1976.
