Grand Trunk Western 2684, a 2-8-0, highballs northeast towards Pontiac after crossing the MC diamond at M.A.L. Junction north of Jackson.  This photograph was taken at the entrance road to the City's sewage treatment plant.  2-8-0's were common power on the GTW's Jackson Branch.  In the 1940-50's when this photo was taken, the line operated with a daily round trip freight.
