BNSF OCS in La Junta
Author: 1976

Can anyone say where the OCS is headed next and why it's been in the area? It has been making day trips and returning at night. Not sure where it's been going.

What is OCS? A little more info might help. What direction out of La Junta, CO? Then again if i don't know what OCS is, I would not know the answer to your question. I'm just curious.

OCS is a term used for "office car special" in the East
I don't think BNSF uses it

Maybe that is an Operation LifeSaver special?

Thank you!  I had seen those initials used occasionally and never realized they were talking about business trains - I simply skipped over them as a topic I probably wasn't interested in!

Don't know why it's been in La Junta, but the cars are headed home to Topeka today.

Under the current tax laws can RRs write off the cost of operating business trains when they are using them to entertain customers and/or potentional customers?
