Again, I'd like to welcome you to what I refer
to as my "promises, promises" page, where from
time to time I attempt to alert the visitors to

this web-site of those upcoming additions I promise to add to
this site. Although the "Detroit Transit History.info" site has
been up now since July 19, 2006——which also happens to be the
30th Anniversary date of my start at D-DOT——it still continues
to be a work in progress, and far from completion.
In addition to a number of new pages being added from time to
time, the web-site also underwent a major face-lift beginning
around the middle of January, 2007. The font type and size
originally used on most of the site's older web-pages were
changed into a more standard font size, with additional photos
being added to a number of the redesigned pages.
The first phase of the web-site's "new-look" began during the
period of January 16th thru 22nd, 2007, when all of the site's
main "Index-Pages" were redesigned into the new format. Our
newly redesigned "Home-Page" was uploaded to the site on
Saturday, January 20, 2007. Since then, the majority of the
pages located throughout the site now sport our new redesigned
look. Even as recently as this past November, a number of the
distorted thumbnail images used on the site were replaced with
clearer images.
However, a few of the pages still remain in the old format and
have yet to be updated. These include all pages listed under
"THE PRE-D.S.R. YEARS" and the "SEMTA HISTORY" articles found
in the "MISCELLANEOUS" section of the site. We're planning to
completely redesign those pages sometime in the near future.
So, "What's coming?" you ask. Well, because of a few technical
issues the video clips promised in September were temporarily
put on hold, but should be up soon, hopefully early in the
year. But over the next few months expect to see a number of
new articles added, including history on past and present bus
and streetcar terminals, a few more route history additions,
and new entries added to the "FLEET ROSTER" section of the web-
site.
Since approval was recently granted to the site to use a number
of photographs from the Walter P. Reuther Library, Wayne State
University "Virtual Motor City Collection," expect to also see
a number of their photos appearing on this site. So stay tuned!
And just a reminder, our "What's New" page is still the page to
visit to check out what's been recently added here since you
last stopped by the site.
But also c'mon back here from time to time to see just what's
coming up!
