M&NE platte river jct branch: when abandoned?

does anyone know when the manistee & northeastern's platte river junction branch from platte river junction to empire junction was abandoned. i looked on michiganrailroads.com railroads timeline and i did not see any abandonment dates for the branch. my guess is sometime in the 1910's.

Need Athearn coach kit part

Can anyone help me out? I just bought an Athearn 70' heavyweight round roof coach and the floor (part #18502 ) wriggles up and down when connected with the car body. Does anyone have a spare athearn heavyweight coach floor they can part with? Athearn appears to longer stock this part.
