Retro Royal Oak
Having just departed the station in Royal Oak, GTW #56, Durand - Detroit crosses 5th Street and past the colorful Stark Hickey Ford "Super Service Station". A lot has changed here since this photo in May of 1959, Stark Hickey is now known as Royal Oak Ford and is now located on Woodward about a mile from here, the 5th Street crossing is closed to vehicle traffic and is exclusively a pedestrian crossing, and the wonderful building that occupied Stark Hickey was demolished and redeveloped to accomodate the changing needs of the busy city.
