After nearly 5 years, I finally managed to catch the elusive Ohio Central local that runs near Pittsburgh. As usual, the train was led by GP10 (ex-IC rebuild) 706, which has an E-bell and a K5LA (for some reason).

Nice catch.
Obviously the E-bell and K5LA are there so she can sound as boring and mundane as everything else on rails nowadays.
I used to walk daily at Boyce Mayview Park and would occasionally see the P&OC switching job. The railroad runs kind of along Chartiers Creek for a ways there.
