Today for the first time ever I saw a CN engine switching the ADM mill off of Ogden. This has always been done by NS. Was also odd that there were no cars at the mill during the day. Appears that the night before the empties were hauled away but the loads were left parked west of Ogden. Maybe the crew timed out? In addition, it was rare that the mill was being switched at 4:30 p.m. during the height of Metra rush hour traffic; normally this move is done later in the evening. Of course, I was heading somewhere and could not get pics or videos.
On a related note, I did shoot video of a switch job from last month. Hoping to put it on youtube. However, having a 16 month old doesn't allow me much time to do this.
