So on this day, me and my buddy David decided to go out and railfan around the CN Holly sub in the Pontiac area after I get of work, to see if we can see some cool yard action, and/or to catch CN L513 on the Lake Orion Branch. Unfortunately though, things didn't exactly go as planned and we either missed L513 on the branch or it didn't run at all. So then we resorted to railfanning around Pontiac yard for a bit, so we can see CN L507 pull in and work, as well as L513 potentially kick cars in the yard, in which it did! So that was definitely neat to see, and to add on to the neat stuff, the leading SD70M-2 on L507 had one heck of a Hybrid K5LLA which supposedly was hacked together to resemble the sound of an old cast P5, and honestly I can see that recreation clearly. It was very loud and it sounded great, and to make matters even better, the horn had all bells facing forward! So hearing that and seeing L513 kick cars in the yard was quite the experience, so here's my video of it all so y'all can experience it too lol. So I guess with that said, I hope y'all enjoy this one
