There's construction around the 17 Mile Rd area but I haven't seen this yet. I'll have to do some investigating

Correct. This new customer will displace the frame unloading at Mound Yard. No net gain of business for Conrail unless with volume of frames to unload.
I got this, Sodor Island where Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends work.

It's Senzu Station on the Oigawa Railway. It's a 24 mile long passenger railroad. In the 70's they re-introduced steam to boost their tourist business running stem on one train almost daily. Good eye AARR, that is Hiro in the distance. There was a Rusty there and another full size locomotive dressed up as a Thomas character.
Back to Michigan. This bridge has been replaced with a more modern structure. I can't tell if it's logs in the foreground or wood scraps. There was once a raceway here to a powerhouse. It's now a road down to the river.

Newaygo again? It'd be looking north. Hills are about right on the north side, and the south bank was an extensive lumber operation.
