Plymouth Cantilever SignalOne of two Cantilever signals in the Plymouth area, this view can be accessed from the end of Irvin Street in Plymouth, where it stops at the Plymouth Sub. This view looks east as CSX trrain Q335 swings off the Saginaw Sub on the SW wye and heads west toward Grand Rapids. This cantilever if from the late C&O period. An earlier designed cantilever can be found just east of the Beck Road crossing, west of town. Note the many flatcars of pipe. 5-18-05 GP30M4216
