Steam & Excursion > CVSR and Fort Wayne 765 renumbered 767Date: 09/17/16 15:03 CVSR and Fort Wayne 765 renumbered 767 Author: agrafton Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad hosts the 767
I managed to sneak out today to see the Fort Wayne Railroad Society 765 renumbered 767 honoring the history of the fabled engine.This engine had a major renovation with the addition of a Mars light, this is a light that flops around like a limp flops around.. this was doneto scan the ditch line and embankments and bridges etc..etc. Although I have a new knee I couldn’t chase it like I wanted so I went toAkron's Northside Station where it was stopped when I got there I grabbed several photos of the crowd and tried to get the engine alonea herculean task but for most part it was good best photo the CVSR engine 6771 on the North end of train to drag it back to Rockside foranother return run. Check the photo descriptions.Thanks, Alan photo1 the crowd at Akron, Ohio's Northside Station photo 2 more of the crowd photo 3 a rare moment when the crowd moved revealing the 767 Date: 09/17/16 15:05 Re: CVSR and Fort Wayne 765 renumbered 767 Author: agrafton photo 4 the new Mars light on the bottom, look closely you can see the name Mars

Your 6771 photo is at a location I'm going to have to try because the background gives an entirely new view for me.
