EB on M1 at Durand at 07:05 - too wet on the cam to make out the unit numbers.

They were held at E Durand for P365

Thru Scanner, they are dropping their racks at Cory Yard and picking up anything that is there and has to go west before heading west to BC.

Interesting as we haven’t seen a 271 drop at Cory in a long time.

What I'm guessing to be E251 clearing Moterm @ 3:34, looks like a long train judging how many blocks it's taking up on ATCS.
