Union Station in South Lyon, at the crossing of the Pere Marquette main line to Grand Rapids and the GTW's Jackson Branch.  A PM steam locomotive and train sits on the passing track, beyond Pontiac Trail.  The crossing was interlocked, as was the switch nearby.  The west end of the siding was a spring switch.  The GTW had trackage rights on the PM to reach the freight house and team track at the left side of the photo.  This photograph may have been taken from the cab of a westbound F-unit, as it appears that a sliver of the headlight shows at the bottom right of the photo.  The depot, which is one of 3-4 "witch's hat" designs on the GTW has been moved to South Lyon's McHattie Park and restored.
