To get to the Dearborn station, go to Michigan Avenue between the Southfield Freeway and Greenfield Road. There were hundreds of parking places, but the area is under construction for a major expansion of the Dearbron Civic Center. Sometimes it is necessary to park a bit of a walk from the station. There are generally cabs at the station for all trains. Detroit buses have a green and yellow stripe.
Exact change is required.
Traffic has outgrown the station, which is often crowded even for off-peak trains. Vending machines are available. Many passengers prefer to wait outside under the platform canopy, which in good weather can be a very pleasant place to wait for a train. The station is one of only three in the state with covered platforms, so passengers do not have to drag suitcases through the slush and snow of Michigan winters . Dearborn is the home of Henry Ford and the Ford Motor Co., which dominates the local economy.
