This is a fairly nice b&w photo of the former interlocking tower for Lake Shore & Michigan Southern with the Michigan Central and the Pere Marquette. After the tower fell into Conrail control, it was eventually demolished in June of 1985, just a few months after this photo was taken. No photographer was listed for this photo unfortunaely. |
