OHCR 4030
Title:  OHCR 4030
Description:  My next attempted shot for CFE 08 was going to be by the turned PLs on the east side of Ada, OH. When I crossed the IORY tracks at Sugar Street I could see the LSL building. Low and behold, the leader definitely was not orange as I could see the nose of the lead engine was yellow. That meant the leader was one of the LTE SD50s or one of the OHCR units. Regardless, the train was still building, so even if I did decide to come back for it I knew I should have a little time. I raced out to Ada and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. And after ages of waiting, the LSL got track to Tremont with the OHCR 4030 on the front. Ive always had such terrible luck getting the OHCR units leading the LSL, so I decided to drop my chase with CFE 08 and head toward the DT&I to chase the LSL to Tremont. I decided to go south since I wasnt sure how much headway it would make since I was a solid 20 miles east of the tracks. I decided to go south of Saint Johns, OH to the very, very tiny unincorporated town of Slater, OH where I set up shop beside some derelict DT&I codeline. After some waiting, the train appeared around the corner, with not only one, but both OHCR units, the tunnel motor, and two orange units. I think I made the right choice coming here!

OHCR 4030
Title:  OHCR 4030
Description:  Next shot was Jackson Center, where I set up shop just south of Plastipak. Rainwater tends to gather in the ditch right beside CR 22 so I figured a relection shot would make for a nice frame. Unfortunately for me the puddle was bigger than what it looked and the grass was also taller than it appeared, so not only did the reflection not come out well, but the camera focused on some blades of grass instead of the train. Oh well, sometimes that happens!

OHCR 4030
Title:  OHCR 4030
Description:  The LSL roars through Thakery as it enters its final leg before meeting the northbound at Tremont City. This would be the final shot I took of the southbound before it recrewed with the WCH-B and continued toward Washington Court House.

IORY 4082, IORY 3222, IORY 3493, IORY 3221, IORY 3313, IORY 4071, and OHCR 4030
Title:  IORY 4082, IORY 3222, IORY 3493, IORY 3221, IORY 3313, IORY 4071, and OHCR 4030
Description:  And just like that the chase southbound portion of the chase was over, and we prepped to shoot the northbound. The same power from yesterdays LSL (minus the OHCR 4023 of course) is the power for the northbound. Not sure why they would drop the OHCR 4023 considering it was the last unit in the consist facing north yesterday. Our interest in the train had dropped significantly, but we still planned to shoot it some. The LSL flops trains with the WCH-B crew at Tremont.
