Port Sheldon?

They’re sitting on the fuel pad at Consumers in West Olive in that photo. Looks like it was taken from the Lakeshore Ave bridge.

Same thing. The port is Port Sheldon. West Olive is actually the station out on the main at US31.

Eh. Both are correct. It’s in Port Sheldon Twp., but has a West Olive address.

The station, or at least the West Olive sign is at the switch that gets you off the main onto the spur. CGC 33.6

Is that house track at W.O still there? One of the large greenhouses used to unload tanks of Ethylene Oxide there. Used in forced fruit ripening. Kinda dangerous though....to say the least.

Nope. Just the main and branch to the power plant left.
