Again, this crossing has only crossbucks. This is another North-South NS line that is used to service local industries nearby. This line crosses the east-west Michigan Line right next to the crossing. The building next to the crossing is BO Tower, which controls the signals an switches around the area.

What's weird about this crossing other than the faded crossbucks, is the fact that there is a bell here. A very old GRS mechanical bell is mounted on a post next to the crossing. It was low enough that Gtw4070 could tap it with his hand. It sounded just like a teardrop bell. It operates whenever a train comes by.
