The Wolverine
Route
The Wolverine is currently served by three eastbound (#350, #352, #354) and three westbound (#351, #353, #355) trains. Their routes differ slightly, and the discrepancies have been noted below.

Amtrak is an essential transportation link for small urban and rural communities across America; for many it is the only affordable and convenient public transportation.
Ridership on the Wolverine trains in 2004 was 366,291 passengers, up 12.2 percent from the 326,367 passengers who rode the trains during the 2003 fiscal year.
Amtrak's $1.2 billion request will allow Amtrak to continue to operate its current system, continue its work toward a state-of-good-repair and stability, and make critically needed investments to return rolling stock and infrastructure.
