The annual railroad festival in Durand, Michigan, has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event was to have been held May 14-17 by Durand Railroad Days, Inc.
The announcement was made on the group’s Facebook page and it would have been the 44th festival.
The event is held in part at the restored Durand Union Station, which houses the Michigan Railroad History Museum and serves as an Amtrak station for the Chicago-Port Huron Blue Water.
The museum is also closed through at least April 30 due to the pandemic.
Durand sees trains of Canadian National, Huron & Eastern and Great Lakes Central.
