We set out yesterday to see the F units pull the OCS on the CNO&TP from Cincinnati to Chattanooga. We didn't end up getting to see quite what we planned on. While waiting for the train we learned that the A unit had experienced some mechanical problems prior to departing from Cincinnati and that the F units were pulled off the train. They were replaced with a Dash 9 and a GP60. After a bad fall on some ice while photographing other trains before the OCS arrived I didn't feel like chasing the OCS much but did manage to get shots of it at a few locations. Here are a couple of photos from 3-6.
