Rail
Access
The
nearest railroad to the Potvin Industrial Park is the Tuscola

the south property lines of Lots 7, 8, and 9. At present,
the railroad does not have a spur in place that services
the Potvin Industrial Park. However, the City has successfully
negotiated with Tuscola & Saginaw Bay in the past in
several instances to provide such access to area manufacturers,
based on their specific needs and projected private investment.

City of Cadillac is located approximately 50 miles inland
from Lake Michigan and the nearest navigable water/barge
port is located in Manistee, Michigan.
