Looks neat, but the image is a little too small to see much detail. Do you have a larger version, without giving away the location?

AARR got it. I have to size the pictures down in order to be able to post them. Next time I won't go quite as small.

You got it. Thought that I would do something that someone probably hasn't seen from ground level. Not just anyone can get that shot.

I've been back there one time many years ago and your picture looked familiar but it was still just a lucky guess on my part because I wouldn't have bet money I was right :lol:

The 3 tracks on the right are Dearborn steel and the track on the left leads to Kenwall steel.

This looks like the railcar repair place in Waterford. Used to be operated by Trailer Train and their tracks were full of 89' flat cars and vehicle carriers. I believe someone else operates it now and it is far less busy and it seems just auto carriers. The way the tracks are cramped onto the property reminds me of one of my first HO layouts where I crambed as much track onto a board with no layout design or track plan :lol:

The spur at the bottom goes to a now vacant lumber yard that previously was operated by Erb and afterwards Stock.

This is in NW Lower Michigan.
Try to name the business, location, and the rail line behind the building.
