Crossing: Donald, MI (PM/MRY]

Donald was the name of the interlocked crossing of the Pere Marquette's branch line from Saginaw Yard to Bad Axe, the the Michigan Railway's interurban line from Bay City south to Saginaw. This crossing was located along Norman Street between 23rd Street and North Outer Drive in Buena Vista Township.

This appears to be a "strong-arm" interlocking tower.
