Eastern Railroad Discussion > Heading Home - NKP 765

NKP 765 headed home today after spending time on the CVSR for "Steam In The Valley 2018". All photos were taken on the Norfolk Southern on October 16, 2018. Image one was taken east of Kimball, Ohio while the last three were taken in Bellevue, Ohio.
Here are the first three images.

 Hi Bob
Nice set of pictures
You were right where I was in Bellevue
I got it at Rt 99 and Rt 4 bridge and at the Moose Hall standing right by you as I was the one in the white truck

My favorite is Pic 1!!

Oh to be a passenger in one of the cars and sitting on the back porch with the big Berk up front.

Bob - all great, but like that second one in particular - - 
B&W, plus head-on, with cars not visible.  Looks like it
could date back to the 50's. (except for the signals)

An ironic twist, 10/16  was the 54th anniversary of the end of the NKP, merged into the N & W on this date in 1964.

The Lima, NKP product looks mighty fine.  Great shots.   Duane

Charter Wire cars on the rear

No doubt that would be a great trip, but I understand that the terms of these moves on NS are just engne crew only, no passengers.

I can dream can't I??  LOL  Thanks for the update, appreciate it!

This one would make a good painting or canvas print. Congratulations on IOTD.
