Notes

Time Line

1917. The GTW had an agent here during the day shift. [TRT]

1932. The Michigan Public Utilities Commission allows the GTW to discontinue its Harvard station in Oakfield Township. Earnings at this station were not sufficient to warrant maintaining the station as a regular agency. A caretaker will be maintained in place of the station agent to keep the bilding clean, well lighted and warm for the accommodation of the travelling public and for care of freight. [MPUC]
