Description Built for the Michigan Central Railroad in 1892, the Niles Train Station is still in use today as a passenger depot by Amtrak.  It serves as a stop on Amtrak's Detroit to Chicago routes.  Retaining much of its Victorian charm, it has been used for location shots in three movies: "Continental Divide, "Midnight Run" and "Only The Lonely".  Nestled along the St. Joseph River, the city of Niles had its beginnings in 1691 as Fort St. Joseph, built by the French.  In 1761 the British took the fort and held it until 1781, when the Spanish took it from them.  In 1783 the Treaty of Paris made it, along with the rest of Michigan, a possession of the United States.  Located near the Michigan-Indiana border, South Bend and the University of Notre Dame, Niles currently has a population of just over 11,000.
