A CP freight has just left BRC Clearing and heads south on CN/GTW iron

This CP-powered freight has just departed the east end of BRC's Clearing Yard and has turned south onto CN (ex-GTW) iron, at a location known as Hayford Crossing. This is one of the busiest hotspots in Chicagoland, with over 100 trains per day passing through. In 3 hours I spent along this stretch of BRC main, I saw 18 trains.
