I'd like to write a story about the history of this coal chute, which was built by the Michigan Central Railroad in order to provide coal for steam-powered locomotives. I have heard a few famous names connected with the chute's construction, including Abe Gibron, who became coach of the Chicago Bulls. Can anyone help me with this?
