| Whitlow Jct. was where the Rock Island from Tinsman, 14 miles south of Fordyce, on the Crossett Branch to Crossett. It crossed the AD&N then turned south and parallelled the AD&N 5 miles into Crossett. Before the Rock Island went under it had a major derailment in this section and abandoned their line from Whitlow Junction to Crossett in favor of trackage rights over the AD&N, thus the crossing was removed. F&P inherited this connection with the AD&N. The two side tracks were the former Rock Island interchange tracks with the AD&N. The F&P trains came on into Crossett and yarded in the Crossett Yard, and the two tracks were used for storage of cars. |
