http://www.clas.wayne.edu/photos/part2/ ... a-4-87.pdf
What is the factory / complex north east of Zug Island?
More so, what is that circle structure in the area?

track charts circa 1945 to 1955
I was wondering if any one can help me with this one. I'm looking for track charts circa 1945 to 1955. Detroit area. I have a full set of PM, pre C&O merger. I have a Wabash chart from Oakwood Yard to fort/3rd st depot (granted these are a little later then i would like seeing as I75 is in them) Wha...

Pere Marquette Questions
Been thinking about doing some modeling of the Pere Marquette circa 1947.
What kind of signals did this road use in this time frame? (Plymouth to Detroit)
Also what kind of grade crossing protection was in use, in the Detroit area (CSX from Plymouth to Detroit)
Thanks

Re: Boat Yard Line ops
Does any one know about the signaling on this line when there was still passenger service to FSUD? As in type ? I suspect that there where dwarfs near the station. But again, not sure on the type. I know about the 6th street interlocking, and a map i have states there was also an interlocking betwee...

Re: New signal at Mill st.
I remember a while back there was talk about putting in a switch some where downriver between NS (Detroit Line 2) and CN's (shore line sub)(south of CP mill) If they did that and put the switch back in north of mill st. then they could cross over and head to flat rock yard. If you look at some of th...

Re: New signal at Mill st.
Went by and looked at this today. I have a theory about it. CN trains from down south(north bound trains on the Shore Line Sub) could use this as direct route ( if the line was upgraded that is) to connect with NS at CP mill and run the NS lines up to DelRay. The south bound trains could use the Riv...
