Yes, that's the Otsego branch with GDLK train 303, just cleared N. Main Street, in Plainwell, Plainwell Community Schools district, Allegan County. The Otsego branch was the former LS&MS RR line that ran through Otsego, Allegan, Hopkins, Bryon Center onto GR. It's have a Plainwell, MI 49080 address.PatAzo wrote:Your close. This is the Otsego branch just clear of N. Main St. in Plainwell. The 303 had died at Plainwell southbound. The following morning they had another 303 to send north so they shoved the previous days southbound out the Otsego branch and left it.BDG wrote:106th Ave. on the Otsego branch.

Yes, that's West Warren Avenue, looking north between the I-96 Expressway and Grand River Avenue (old US-16) in Detroit, Detroit City School district, Wayne County. That spur is north off the connection with the former DTSL, later GTW, now CN Shore Line Sub.

Re: Where Is It?
Michael, it looks like there was a siding under the building to load feed or grain. But what about the pavement in the foreground, was it the mainline at one time, or just a road or drive?Michael wrote:
