Is this correct, also?

Pour dire "I was coming home from work on Wednesday evening", peux-je dire "j'étais en train de rentrer du travail mercredi soir" ?

Hi James, 

It just sounds a bit odd -

I was in the process of returning home 

when the 'imparfait' suffices.

Bonne Continuation !

Thank you! About 75 % of my French sounds odd, and that is being generous!
