Mr.Dietrich;

The lost crossover is found;  a cropped copy is attached.
This is a facing point crossover that allows IB 44-line cars
to cross over to the outbound track then take the back
track to the yard.

This is from the 1916 Hopkins collection.  The loop under
the 44 line connects to the interurban on the north side of
the Warrington overpass.  Thus an IB interurban could use
this crossover to get into the yard and presumably to go
outbound on the interurban from the yard.

Here is the map at the university site:
