Conrail OCS in Film

A recent find from the lens of Red Moser. A chronological compendium of Conrail OCS scenes around the Reading PA area from 1982 to 1988. This collection nicely compliments my OCS videos which begin in 1988. In these earlier scenes you can trace the timeline from the blue era, to the freshly painted 4022 sans nose logo, to the changes in placement of its Hancock Air Whistle and replacement with a Conrail standard Leslie. Also note that the heavyweight cars are still equipped with their 6 wheel trucks. You can plot the increase in size of the OCS trains as more equipment was added culminating with the dome car, as well as the arrival of the 4020 and later 4021 to handle the larger trains. Also shown is the joint Blue Mountain & Reading/CR trip with PRR E8s and CR Research cars that ran as an OCS to Harrisburg station for the GG1 dedication. Sounds are from my extensive videos of the OCS. Enjoy!
