| 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! |
