That is correct, but was the creek relocated after the system ended 
operation or earlier?

If the aerial photo is oriented north top then note just below center left 
where the creek bed appears to flow from east to west before heading south 
doesn't it.  The creek appears to come out of the trees below the 
substation.  There was a small trestle that the interurbans crossed just 
south of the Tylerdale yards property and this is where the trestle probably 
crossed.  The barn and substation were essentially parallel or overlapped 
with only the interurban siding between them so this seems logical doesn't 
it.  http://tinyurl.com/2cb958  this map shows that small trestle under 
which was the Chartiers Creek!  I have seen photos of interurbans crossing 
this trestle but can't find one now can I.
