Speaking of Ghosts - NKP variety
Author: NKP715

Drove by the Conneaut Railroad Museum earlier today,
and was surprised (and very pleased) by what I saw.
Last year, the Museum began sheet metal repairs on
the 755, which were completed this year. Now, they've
begun the repainting process, as evidenced by this photo.

She sure looks like a ghost ! Maybe it's the ghost of
the Nickel Plate, which just marked 50 years as a
fallen flag, as per the link below.

It's great to see they're taking care of the old girl !

Or, maybe Halloween is coming ?

It does look like a ghost, but then those NKP Berks look good in any color.

Very good to see that they are taking care of her. Was wondering about her condition.
