Canadian National runs this yard these days, but it was once owned by Grand Trunk. This viewing location is across from the control tower on Oakland County Campus. This is one big yard and there are probably other good spots to watch the action from.

The locomotive seen here is CN class GRG-17k; built 1957 as GT 4922 rebuilt in 1992 as GT 4628, class GR-417a, according to (visit link)
