NKP 2-8-4 #759, Nickel Plate Road (New York, Chicago & St. Louis RR)
Title:  NKP 2-8-4 #759, Nickel Plate Road (New York, Chicago & St. Louis RR)
Description:  Standing proud among other locomotives, NKP 759 can hold its own. With the Union Pacific tender in the background, it makes me think this might have been at the original Steamtown USA at Bellows Falls, VT. Can anyone identify the roundhouse in these photos as being the Bellows Falls location?

NKP 2-8-4 #759 - Nickel Plate Road
Title:  NKP 2-8-4 #759 - Nickel Plate Road
Description:  This interesting photo was taken by an unknown photographer while Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 Berkshire #759 was heading up one of the fan excursions it led while operational at Steamtown National Historic Site. Definitely a more "modern" way of loading coal than a traditional coaling tower used to be and far more fans watching than used to at a coaling tower too.. Note the Western Maryland Alco S2 #126 which headed up the coaling train. It would be retired two years later. Note on the back of the photo states "NKP 759 on train AJ-1 and AJ-2 being loaded at Cumberland." No photographer was listed for this action photo.
