South Shore Line | Farewell Michigan City Street Running

One of America's last interurban railroads is the Chicago South Shore Line. Running between Chicago, Illinois and the city of South Bend, Indiana the South Shore Line offers a unique look back to what railroading used to be. One of those unique sections of line notably, is the street running in Michigan City, Indiana. This section of roughly 2 miles of street running occurs on 10th and 11th Streets. While some sections along 11th street are commercial, most sections of the street running are residential, creating some very interesting scenes. As change is bound to happen, the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District is now undertaking an ambitious plan to remove the South Shore tracks from the street, onto a separate dedicated right of way. Houses and buildings have already been demolished to make-way for the new rail route, and this process will only increase as the weeks and months proceed. This past Sunday Feb 27th marked the last official day of revenue street running for the South Shore, ending more than 100 years of this unique operation in Michigan City. While the line is being constructed, busses will shuttle passengers around the construction, however freight traffic will occur at night. In this footage from December 2021, we take a look back of this unique line in Michigan City. Thanks for watching! | Video and Content by MichaelLovesTrains 2022 #SouthShoreLine #MichiganCity
