Agreed! That's Main Street, Millington, looking southeast along the former MC, former, NYC, former, PC, former TSBY, now GLC line which now ends three blocks and a half south of Main Street. M-15 (not visible) is at the far right.~Z~ wrote:Main St, Millington MIPixl wrote:

Re: Where Is It?
Lake St. Helen nearby is the headwater of the S. Branch Ausable River that passes under your bridge. Nice find.railrod1949 wrote: LSRC RR bridge over the unknown River in Richmond Township

Looks like the intersection (almost) of Blackman Road and W Michigan Ave on the west side of Jackson.
