Double decker rail cars tested for Ann Arbor commuter line

Inch by inch the development of a commuter rail system between Ann Arbor and Detroit… well, actually Jackson and Detroit, becomes a reality. Excerpt: "Officials say they hope to hear next week whether the cars passed the test to enter into service. If so, the public could have a chance to take demonstration trips next year. Tuesday's test used an Amtrak engine to take the cars on a run that began in Pontiac and included stops at Birmingham, Royal Oak, Detroit's New Center area, Dearborn, Detroit Metropolitan Airport, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor, Dexter, Chelsea and Jackson." Read the rest here.
