NKP 726 New to the site, another view of the (mainly) Berk deadline.  Contributor's Pick!       
The 726 is the first one in line in this shot and it sure looks like it still has coal in the tender. Wrecked in rear-end collision with troop train at Yellow Creek, Ohio 3/27/54. Equipped with Bendix radio 9/50 to 7/56. Stored at Conneaut 12/57. To Luntz 2/16/62.

Alan Fricker General Neat details, Wendy. The Swift reefers on the left, all the variations of Lackawanna box car letter, you caught the coal in the tender, the open end on the gondola, the wooden roofwalk on the NKP box car, coaling tower in the distance...very nice find. 6/5/2012 5:25:41 PM
