7. ES44AHs #796 + #3164 with
8. DPUs CM44ACs #7304 + #7329.
9. The repositioned DPUs ES40DC #5211 + ES44AH #930 of e/b M415 finally start moving toward the yard at 11:21, clearing the South Maple Avenue grade crossing at 11:28, after blocking it for just over an hour. 

There are at least 20 vehicles backed up north of the grade crossing and five south of it, not including three horses and four bicycles and their riders and several pedestrians on each side.  M415 recrews at East Brunswick and departs about 11:45.
