A pair of CP MLW C424's works in Aberdeen Yard with a TH&B Angus caboose and a (Jordan?) spreader/flanger. Further back in the siding are side-dump cars loaded with dark-colour material to build up the ballast. A fair amount of this material has already been dumped and spread. Some siding tracks look wavy. Within a couple of months CP would take full control of the TH&B, ending its separate existence. Location mapped is approximate, assumes east end of yard.
