Patterson Railroad
Appearance
The Patterson Railroad is a defunct railroad that existed in
Pere Marquette Railroad, which also built a line (the Grand Rapids, Belding and Saginaw Railroad
) south from Belding.
The Belding–Kidd line continued to exist throughout the 20th century, eventually becoming part of the Greenville–Lowell line operated by the Mid-Michigan Railroad, a RailAmerica company. In December 2007 Mid-Michigan petitioned the Surface Transportation Board to abandon the line. The grade is to be converted to a rail trail.[3]
