Location: Ishpeming, MI - Section 21 Crossings

The C&NW and DSS&A had two crossings, about 200 feet apart on the C&NW's Cascade (loop line) about one mile south of Winthrop Junction. The DSS&A crossed here, and then crossed again to get back to the west side of the C&NW and onto the Section 21 mine.

In CNW 1917 evaluation drawings, this was a stop and proceed crossing for both roads, not interlocked. There were stop signs in all directions. The official name of the crossings is unknown. [CNWV]
