John:
Not exactly what you asked for.  I'm not sure how modern  dispatching
captures OS's these days.  Using Pocahontas Division -  Pocahontas
District train sheets from December, 1985, I measured 5 CN02's from
Williamson to Bluefield.    The closest station to Farm  where OS's
were recorded was Tug.  I might also add that the OS's were  rounded
to the nearest 5 minutes (for some reason).
 
CN02 average running time Williamson to Tug -  2 hrs. 10 mins.
     "          "          "        '     Tug to  Bluefield    -   1 hr   10 
mins.
 
The largest train sampled was 6CN02 of Dec. 6.  Engs   6159-8049-6130
83 X 0 - 6009 tons.  Lv Williamson 9:55 AM, By Tug-12:30 PM   and
arrived Bluefield at 2:25 PM -- 4 hrs. 30 mins. in transit.
