this photo by Joel Dinda

Best LARGE, methinks; shows off my fancy camera, anyway.

Canadian National Railway's Cory Yard, just south of Billwood Highway near Dimondale and Potterville, Michigan. This location's on my route to work; it's an easy walk from my office.

Cory's not an exciting yard, operationally; all the sorting is done at the GM Delta Assembly Plant's loading facility, which is a couple hundred yards north from where I took this photo. This yard's purpose is to break long trains into shorter segments for GM's purposes, then to reassemble the train after the the cars have been filled with small vans.

I presume the yard's named after CN Vice President Mike Cory, who was running their Michigan operations when construction of this facility began.
