Today, no trains stop here, but it is the home of the Ann Arbor Model Railroad Club and is almost completely surrounded by old railroad memorabilia, such as old [[level crossing]] signals and baggage carts. Downtown Dexter's main thoroughfares were originally known as A, B, C, D, and E Streets. Today, these are known as Alpine, Broad, Central, Dover, and Edison Streets.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.athomeindexter.com/2014/06/pieces-of-history.html |title=Pieces of history... |author=Gleason, Valerie |date=June 16, 2014 |access-date=November 16, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141129030634/http://www.athomeindexter.com/2014/06/pieces-of-history.html |archive-date=November 29, 2014 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
