About U.S. Route 45 in Michigan in brief
US Highway 45 is a part of the United States Numbered Highway System that runs from Mobile, Alabama, to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It enters the state from Wisconsin south of Watersmeet, ending at an intersection with Ontonagon Street. The highway dates back to the 1930s in Michigan and replaced sections of M-26 and M-35. An eight-mile segment was significantly reconstructed in the late 1950s, and an alignment change in the 1970s moved the routing of US 45 near Rockland before it was reversed soon afterwards.
The Paulding Light, a local phenomenon commonly attributed to the ghost of a railroad brakeman, is viewable from a section of the former routing of U.S. Highway 45 in the Pauldings area in Michigan. In 2010, students from Michigan Technological University solved the mystery of the light, which comes from a ghostman on a train from the 19th century. The light is seen from the headlights of cars on the train, and signs in the area indicate that it comes from the ghostman.
