Gtw4070 did some experimenting on a dead end road off of Dobie Rd. that lead them here. This looks like it could be a pedestrian crossing, but it's a private grade crossing. Check out the warning signs! He also got a picture of the cat seen in picture 4, when he was trying to get a picture of the DOT number.

 

If you came here from the Dobie Rd. crossing, this is the crossing that the "W" sign was warning about.

 

The FRA calls this "SYLVAN GLEN RD." because Sylvan Glen is a small road that parallels the tracks, then when the road ends, this little path continues towards the tracks.

There are two stop signs, two very faded warning signs, and one good warning sign as seen in picture 5.
Since when is San Diego found in Michigan in picture 8?

You can barely see the Dobie Rd. signals in the background.
