A single unit leads the first westbound under the signal gantry at Clara/Durand:

About 30 minutes later, 397 heads west with an assortment of power:

Following right behind 397 was the PTC test train with two CN units and an old IC caboose. At this point the PTC test train had caught up to 397 giving me time to head over to Bancroft to shoot it:

After I shot the PTC test train, GLC arrived to work Durand yard. GLC 383, one of the three ex-MRL SD35s, leading three other EMDs pulls a cut of cars out of the yard:

I went down to Main St to shoot GLC shoving its Durand pickup back to its train:

GLC would work the yard for approximately an hour and then head south. There was a brief hour long pause in activity after GLC headed south and then an eastbound and a westbound got line up. The westbound got put on main 1 to meet the eastbound. The westbound had a matching set of ET44ACs:

The eastbound met another westbound at Flint. As the next westbound approached, the sun began getting lower on the horizon and the cloud cover picked up. With a few rays of sun peeking through gaps in the clouds, CN 2342 brings the westbound through Durand:
