Switching At Davis Junction Illinois With CP# 2313

This one was an unexpected surprise! I make a habit of visiting Davis Junction Illinois on the off chance there might be a train there. For fifteen years I have seen nothing! Then, whilst driving south on I-39, I received a psychic vibe to take the IL-72 ramp and check things out. Wouldn't you know that there was a road switcher working the junction! As this was the day before Independence Day, I suspect that the regular work shift got altered? This modern incarnation of a GP-20 was moving cars from the junction, to the end of the train that was parked there on the Main (that would be the second train I saw after a fifteen year wait!). Video shows a couple of back 'n forth moves and a glance at the parked freight. Davis Junction is south of Rockford and north of Rochelle. This is the Canadian Pacific Main Line (old Milwaukee Road) that follows Il-72 and eventually gets to Bensenville.
