There are postcards from the time when the city had two passenger train stations a few blocks apart, and images of the first steel arches over Saginaw Street. There are images of busy streetcars and the factories that made the town a leading producer of carriages and wagons, earning it the nickname Vehicle City . Other postcards show how Flint became a leader in the horseless carriage industry, and then the birthplace of General Motors . There are images of many of the city's churches, schools, stores, theaters, and amusement parks, and even major events like fires and floods.
