It is incorrectly regarded as a goof that it would take 2 days to travel from Detroit to Marquette by train. A trip via Chicago, on the New York Central and connecting to the Chicago and Northwestern (which only goes to Ishpeming, not Marquette) would have taken about 1-1/2 days. A short cut could be made taking a Lake Michigan car ferry from Muskegon, Ludington or Frankfort in Michigan to Milwaukee, Manitowoc or Kewaunee in Wisconsin, but connections are a problem; a handy taxi or limo service would be necessary. Going directly from Detroit to Marquette could be done by train in a little over 1 day, via Mackinaw City, but the Chicago & Northwestern would not be used. Many passenger trains on all these routes operated in the 1950's.
