Is CSX's Office Car "Youngstown" Still Active?
Author: aehouse

The CSX staff sleeper "Youngstown," is an old favorite of mine, having served as the Erie and Erie Lackawanna "Spirit of Youngstown," in revenue service 1954-1970, then in EL, Conrail (unnamed) and CSX office car service ever since.  It used to appear in almost every CSX OCS consist, but I have not seen it recently.

Does anyone know if it is still active?

The car is shown, second in the train, on a joint D&H/EL office car special near Binghamton, N.Y., northbound in the summer of 1971, when it was still "The Spirit of Youngstown."

It still shows as active, but in storage at Jacksonville.
