This returned NB passing MP 22.5 at 10:00 with 5430. It looked like an abbreviated Saturday 515 that just made the run to East Yard to bring back Chrysler Boxcars, of which it had eight of them that looked like those on the train yesterday going south.

A491 should be just arriving on the Sarnia side of the tunnel now. It has a 3rd unit (CN 2987) cut in about 20 cars from the rear of the train.
