First Visit to Restored Nickel Plate 765 in New Haven, IN

The Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society held an open house to show their restored steam locomotive, Nickel Plate Road 765 in operation. Unfortunatley, the tender derailed on the way out.

Welcome to our family picture gallery! We changed things a bit -- now you don't need to register to see the full-sized photos! Come on in and have a look around.
