10/2 - 00:37 to 2:20 AM - Durand - EB A450 with CN 3860/CN 8913 backing into yard with a large set off for the Durand Yard. They leave empty around 1:07 AM and then back down M1 WB to get the rest of their train. They then have to wait for the WB M397 or M399 on M2 that had the four units I mentioned earlier before A450 crosses over to M2 and uses the Chicago Wye to head south on the Holly Sub to Pontiac.
