L555 is pictured on the Lysaught Lead outside of NSC, waiting to make a lift. Their shift began at about 2100 and by 2200 they were in Parkdale Yard. This shot was taken shortly after midnight, after they had taken the New Gages Spur from Parkdale Yard to get to Adams Yard, from where they shoved back towards NSC. 555 has been based out of Hamilton for a month now, after formerly operating out of Aldershot. It is still operating as a three-person crew, as opposed to the Hamilton yard jobs which operate as a two-person beltpack crew. On that note, the 2300 job was down the hole at the time too with 4704 and a GMTX unit, and in fact the two were in Adams Yard at the same time after 555 made its lift at NSC. I was kind of surprised to find 555 here, but now that it is based out of Hamilton and no longer based out of Aldershot, perhaps I shouldn't have been.
