NS ran their OCS train south today, so I decided to head out and catch what I heard some NS employees call, the "Stockholders' Special".
After finding a nice location, I decided to sit and wait for the train to show up. Several northbounds came while I was waiting.

After those three northbounds cleared, it was a bit of a wait. NS 951 had to swap crews at Burnside, but it was quickly on the move once again. I thought the clouds were going to ruin my efforts, but I lucked out.

After catching the OCS, I decided to check out a couple spots north of Parkers Lake.

On my way home, I paid a short visit to CSX's Main Line Subdivision.
