Steam, Smoke, and Sunday Excursions: Newberry’s Turn of the Century Transformation
Episode 6
Friday, 27 February, 2026
Newberry, Michigan rose with the railroads and the timber economy, then learned how to survive the long shift that followed. In this episode, we trace how a small Luce County town became both an industrial workhorse and a starting point for North Country travel.From charcoal iron and logging payrolls to the steady presence of the state hospital and the early pull of Tahquamenon country, Newberry’s story is about adaptation without pretense. It’s a place shaped by winter, work, and the people who stayed when the boom years cooled.The End of the Road in Michigan is a production of Thumbwind Publications
