After split day we used to set cars off quite frequently. Posted from Android Date: 07/16/19 18:55 Re: A few from Bellevue Ohio on NS Author: junctiontower #757 is looking FABULOUS! A HUGE tip of the hat to the MR&NKP Museum staff, the citizens of Bellevue, and the wonderful crew that got her ready and got her moved "home". Also kudos for Norfolk Southern for cooperating and helping make it happen. Credit where credit is due.
Date: 07/18/19 06:38 Re: A few from Bellevue Ohio on NS Author: SamRae In the closeup photo of the locomotive coming around the wye, if you look in the background around the curve, you will see what looks like a pole building being constructed across the display tracks at the MR&NKP Museum old LS&MS (NYC/PC) freight house, on the site of an old now removed grain elevator. The Museum's overall plan and budget for the NKP 757 not only involved preparing and moving the locomotive west from Strasburg to Bellevue, but also funding and construction a building to do further cosmetic repair and restoration on the 757 and other equipment and equally importantly, to protect the 757 and the other equipment from the harsh northern Ohio winters.
