Mighty big talk including tossing out the suggestion of a QLine 2 running out Michigan Ave. to make the MC location relevant.

"Moroun envisions the depot having a straight-shot rail line to Detroit Metropolitan Airport and being a stop for Amtrak’s high-speed train routes to Chicago and a connection to Ontario’s VIA through the adjacent rail tunnel that dips below the Detroit River."

"One of the biggest obstacles to redeveloping the train station is its location along Michigan Avenue on the outskirts of Corktown, nearly two miles west of Campus Martius in the central business district.

"To overcome that barrier, Moroun said a second QLine streetcar line could be built along Michigan Avenue to connect downtown with the depot [[like there used to be in the first half of the 20th century, as evidenced by old rails exposed along Michigan).
