DOUG,

A bit west of the road crossing. It actually came off a siding/passing trac=
k that used to be in the north side in addition to the one on the south sid=
e we are familiar with.
If you want to follow the ROW just go west of 47 when it=E2=80=99s on the n=
orth/south axis. Look into the tree line and you can see what=E2=80=99s lef=
t of the ROW.
