Moved to mainspace by The ed17 (talk). Nominated by Mackensen (talk) at 21:45, 2 September 2013 (UTC).
- This is a surprise—I just came here to nominate the article only to find that Mackensen already did! I've changed Mackensen's credit to DYKmake after the work he's put into the article. Also, an alt 1 that may appeal to a wider readership:
- ALT1 ... that no passenger train has serviced Michigan's Upper Peninsula since the Peninsula 400 (pictured) ended in 1969? Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 04:20, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
This article was moved to mainspace from a sandbox on September 1st. It is new enough and long enough, the image is licensed and both the hooks are well sourced. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:54, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
