It certainly looks like you're at "Southwest Highway" aka Columbus Ave.....

And it appears to be an interlocking. Note there is a name on the signal bungalow but may not be visible enough to discern.

That's actually the "station" at Western Ave, which was a stop for N&W's Orland Park Cannonball commuter train. My guess is the southbound caboose hop will zig zag it's way from the BRC back into N&W's Landers Yard.
