I'll be in the Detroit/Novi, MI area in June for a week on buisness, and I was wondering what kind of train activity can I expect? Of course, I'm looking for somewhat safe & newbie-friendly photo spots around the area. I'll be in class during normal buisness hours, so evening activity would be prefered. Also, since it looks like I'll be flying in on a Sunday afternoon, and flying out the following Saturday evening, any weekend info would be helpful as well. I will have a rental car, so anything within say a half hour driving distance would be do-able. But if there's something killer further out, let me know and I'll think about it.... :-)

Thanks in advance!
Tom
