Train Stations of the North Holly Sub

I have a question about 3 stations North of Pontiac, if anyone has info.

#1 Windiate

This would be in Waterford. It showed up as a stop on an old map. There is an "apartment" there that possibly could have been a station, but I've never really seen or heard of a station being there

#2 Rattalee Lake

This would be just south of Holly. I saw someone on Facebook mention a station for a scout camp there. Probably not a full station, but I have found nothing on it.

#3 Clarkston

I saw a picture of the station when it closed (it's still there). In the picture there were 3 tracks. Was the 3rd a siding or was there a customer there

Thanks

Thanks. Links worked for me.

I believe the Rattalee station was unofficial for the nearby scout camp.

Given the short distance to Holly, I suspect the Ratalee stop was, as you suggest, a part time flag stop and not a formal station.

I did find an answer to my question about additional rails by the Clarkston depot
