CR E8A 4020 - Conrail "OCS" - Office Car Special |
| Description: |
This is a beautiful misty morning action shot along the Beaver River of the Conrail "OCS" - Office Car Special - known to others as the CR President's trian, CR business train, CR sales/marketing train, or CR inspection train. The CR dispatchers used the generic "OCS" call for any of these. Conrail conductor Ken Taylor was able to catch it passing by. The date is based on the slide stamp which may not be accurate. |

Got the board |
| Description: |
The Southern Tier picnic train has the board at East Glass and is about to take to the Tier and take off. Once clear of the plant, Jack Kithcart, Southern Tier GM was running. He notched it out and he was gone. I did not catch the train all the way back to Binghamton. Jack must have thought he was running the Erie Limited. Im told he ran 70 MPH to Binghamton. |

Say goodbye |
| Description: |
A couple of riders on the rear platform watch the trains progress through East Glass. Hell be waving goodbye as the train gets up to speed for a quick ride east. Jack Kithcart was running, and he must have thought he had the Lake Cities. We never caught up to him. |

There was a road close to the tracks for most of the distance south from Corning, so following the train was easy. It has almost reached the park in this shot from PA 267. |

The only thing better would have been Erie(or EL, Id take that any day) E 8s on this train, the Southern Tier picnic special, which ran from Port Jervis to Hammond Dam State Park near Wellsboro PA. Here it is on the famous Starrucca Viaduct, a pair of classics if ever there was one. |

CR 4022, former Erie 833, which has run on this line since 1951, leads an OCS through Kirkwood. The high officials picked the perfect time and the perfect line to ride in early October. The color will be spectacular. |

As usual, the train was pulled by a pair of E 8s. CR 4021 was the trailing unit. Im going to hazard a guess that 4020 was the leader, though I cant find where dad got a photo of the lead unit. |
