Capitol City Steampunk Invasion - Lansing

Capitol City Steampunk Invasion takes over Clara's Lansing Station Train Car. Visit the Capitol Steam Facebook page for more information about the group.

"From its beginning in 1903, the “Union Depot” on Michigan Avenue was a haven of hospitality for train passengers and Lansing locals whose entertainment was watching the iron horse pull in each day. It’s rumored this station was also used as a backdrop in the production and shooting of the famous novel turned movie “Anatomy of a Murder.” The elaborate combination of cut stone arches and towers was designed be Detroit architects Spiers and Rohns who gave several Michigan railroad stations a similar dash of Romanesque design."
