Larry A:   Good thinking..... the TM book does show a detail drawing on
page 171.   

Three buildings are shown, belonging to the Carnation Milk Company (Can
Factory, Power House and Milk Factory).  The CMStP&P connection ends at
the east end, west side of Concord Street, with direct and continuing
trackage under wire. 

The interchange track does run southwestward, entering 2nd street where
it parallels the single track TM mainline to a point just east of Park
Street.  At this point, the interchange track enters the TM mailine                                                     

There are two tracks west ending at Park Street.  The north track splits
in two tracks at the west end of the Power House building.  An apparent
loading platform is shown south of the middle track and lies between
this middle track and the south track.  That location is south of the
Can Factory.  So, actually, three tracks stub end at Park Street.  Of
note is that the TM overhead wire ends, on the west side of Concord
Street.                                                      

Unfortunately, the url for the map, doesn't work. Therefore, my
extensive explanation
