Here in Sarnia, Ontario, looking north, this line leads to the local Cargill grain elevator.  You can see the elevator in the distance, maybe a mile or so beyond those aggregate piles.  The St.Clair river is just out of view on the left side of the picture. This used to be a small freight yard that served CN car ferries, until the new St.Clair Tunnel was built in 1995. Following that, the car ferries were shut down and the yard became redundant. This picture was taken in September 2017.

Here is basically the same view, while about 10 inches of "partly cloudy" falls over 3 of the past 4 days.
