Appears that you are refering to the old WP San Jose Branch - towards its west(?) end.

At least the 1964 WP track maintainers chart shows it. It shows the branch crossing the SP coast line at what it called "Willow Glen Xing"; then Minnesota St; Bird Av; Willow Ave; and broadway; while on its way to its end at the freight houses near San Fernando St.

I believe the Willow glen SP crossing was the SP coast line main, but I'm not sure; as there is another SP crossing near Monterey Rd, and another near Auzerais St called West San Jose Xing. Only the Willow glen crossing shows an interlocking.

Hope that helps!
