Although it existed for seventeen years, from 1977 to 1994, there is very little on-line documentation of the southeastern Pennsylvania’s Octoraro Railway. The location of the line required a deliberate drive away from the larger draws of Conrail, Amtrak, and Chessie lines that were 45 minutes to an hour away, so I don’t think that many photographers made the trip to Kennett Square. Fortunately, a college/railfan friend of mine relocated to the Baltimore area, and Kennett Square was along the route between my home and his, so I did make a few visits to the railroad. One Octoraro locomotive for which I can find no documentation is S2 number 4, shown here in the siding at Kennett Square. It’s obviously an alumnus of the B&O, but I have been unable to trace its exact identity.
