Very good and reasonable guess. But negative. And not on Conrail.

Sort of a different one...but it contains rails nonetheless (and standard rails are very nearby)

Admin edit from the OP: I will add here, the photo is NOT in Michigan, but in a bordering state. :D
The honor (dishonor?) is all mine. This is in Hamler on the DT&I, just south of the diamond. I had some time to kill and was bumming around and found it, I thought it was neat and may have attracted the eye of other railfans in years past :D
