Is Flint Twp that iffy as well? I grew up there but moved away a long time ago. Maybe Flint Twp is Flintish today...
I wouldn't use it. Why anyone thought that was a smart move is beyond me.
Are you suggesting that those who live in da ghetto don't like to take walks on bike paths?

Realizing this is about 3 pages too late, DTE has a wye between Yale and Avoca on what used to be CSX's Port Huron Sub. Granted, the last known train to use the line ran in 1999, but satellite imagery shows the wye itself to be in place and intact.

D&I Jct. between the Flat Rock sub and the Dearborn Branch on the CN is used as a wye on occasion.
