Title:  NS 954
Description:  After heading down south for the week, the OCS makes its return back to Altoona with 1230 leading 1231, and six OCS cars in the consist. The train flew from Mansfield to Conway, then proceeded to take hours from Conway to Altoona, partially due to a stop at Conpitt junction. By the time it had hit Altoona, night had fallen and snow began to fall.
