Special Visitor in Nevins Yard |
| Description: |
The CSX OCS has arrived from Jacksonville empty. The plan was to send the the train to Boston on Monday and then head to Chicago on Tuesday with Hunter Harrison and the rest of the crew. That plan was cancelled, however, due to to Harrison's health issues and the train deadheaded all the way back to Jacksonville! So much for Harrison's cost savings! |

Backing on to the OCS |
| Description: |
The Geeps were due to lead the OCS into Boston because of worries about the F40s hitting the wires in South Station. The plan was to send the the train to Boston on Monday with the geeps on the left and then head to Chicago on Tuesday with Hunter Harrison and the rest of the crew. That plan was cancelled, however, due to to Harrison's health issues and the train deadheaded all the way back to Jacksonville! So much for Harrison's cost savings! |
