(23.09 miles west of St.
Ignace Docks). Ozark has two abandoned limestone quarries
(2004). The limestone quarry on the southwest side of the DSS&A
main line was established first. The quarry that was last
"mined" is the quarry on the east side of the DSS&A and can be
observed from the M-123 highway. The DSS&A spur served this
quarry. The Martel Furnace Company built charcoal kilns at
Ozark and a standard gauge railroad to supply cordwood for the
kilns. [CB/MIHX8]

Cadillac Siding goes east
from the DSS&A main line approximately 0.4 miles south of the spur
to the charcoal kilns andlimestone quarry. [CB/MIHX8]

The Ozard depot still
exists (2004). It is an old box car that was used as a DSS&A
depot, then as a hunting cabin. It has been sitting empty for
years. [CB/MIHX8]
