Joliet Yard is again loaded with IC SD70's on this late Summer evening. Looks more like the IC rather than the CN these days. (IC 1018, 1019, 1022, 1027 and 1029)
A local with IC 1022 waits for clearance out of Joliet Yard and across the diamond at CP Rock for points east.

The L509 returns back to Joliet Yard after its work down in Morris.
