Steam & Excursion > NKP 765 Steam in the Valley on TV

WJW TV 8 in Cleveland shot a photojournalism piece on NKP 765 this past weekend. It aired for the first time on Tuesday 9-19-17 in the 6pm news. Award winning WJW Photojournalist Ali Ghanbari spent 2 days trackside as well as on board the train and 765 to shoot this story. I am a technician/engineer at WJW, as well as a rail enthusiast, and assisted Ali in being his "railroad interpreter". In other words, I made sure he was in the right place at the right time! Thanks goes to the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad and especially the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society, for without their cooperation and generous assistance this photojournalism piece would not exist. Here is a link to the video.

It also can be found on the WJW's website, www.fox8.com , as well as on YouTube under the title "Steam in the Valley" uploaded by agtvphotog. Attached are screenshots from the photojournalism piece.

That video was well done and should help to get more folks interested in riding next weekend.

That is Wes Camp's bell on the close up,now on loan to the FWRHS. It is a Geisler Engineering replica used on NKP 759 on the AFT announcement trip to Scranton in July 1973.
