424 is a regular Edmonton to Winnipeg merchandise train. It is coming up on Clover Bar Yard, as the rear end is still on the high bridge over the North Saskatchewan River. The GMD-1 is likely to be swapped out with a similar unit that will be sent to the shops for maintenance.

    The lack of visible exhaust suggests that the GMD-1 is just being towed. I am thinking that it is destined for the small yard in Wainwright, but I could be wrong.
