Train 117 is arriving at Calder/Walker yard in Edmonton. At the time, the intermodal yard was located between 82 and 97th Street. It has long since been moved to an area just north of Bissel Yard in the west end.
The signals control eastbound trains as they leave the yard and the yard bypass track (nearest track). Once again this has changed as there are two bypass tracks now. The sign indicates that CTC begins at this point on the Wainwright Sub. (Technically, this is not correct as the wainwright Sub used to turn SW at East Junction and go downtown. This track was controlled by the Calder/Walker Switchtender, I believe).
