Location: Bessemer Junction, MI
Bessemer Junction was on the DSS&A main line at milepost 293.9, six miles west of Thomaston. A short-lived DSS&A branch line left the main line here, going due south to Bessemer and the iron range between Bessemer and Ironwood.
Notes
The DSS&A wanted to serve this iron range, but was never unable to unseat the C&NW and Soo Line.
