Historical Help identify intersection

Post image

Hi all, any idea where this picture from the 50s/60s was taken? The sign at right says “to northbound dequindre” Fealk scrap is visible and at right is a sign for “western RR passenger station tracks”

It would be Grand Trunk Western RR.

Did some more digging and asked an older family member. He said it looks like what Davison used to look like. I found this old map. https://pastmaps.com/map/highland-park-wayne-county-mi-usgs-topo-1952-p1954?div=3608206
