I had noticed the HAWK signals while cruising through google street view before.
I couldn't find that they can be used for anything but pedestrian crossings or a version for emergency vehicle road entrances.
I just checked the online Michigan Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices

I used to drive around that area a lot for work. Those have been there since since at least 2009.

Thank you for the excellent report.

Tank cars probably from PVS. I haven’t seen anything at Quaker in a long time.

Friendship Brick is cramped. Barely enough room for a boxcar or the bricks.

MY-6. Dunno why it’s the only one they address as ‘MY’ but that’s it. The rest of the north yard and macks are NY.
