Nickel Plate Road 765 is a Berkshire steam locomotive that was fortunate enough to be preserved and put back into excursion service by a non-profit group of volunteers. Her story often falls into the background compared to more famous locomotives, but she had a tremendous impact on the future of heritage locomotive operation.

"Nickel Plate Road 765 is a class "S-2" 2-8-4 "Berkshire" type steam locomotive built for the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad, commonly referred to as the "Nickel Plate Road". In 1963, No. 765, renumbered as 767, was donated to the city of Fort Wayne, Indiana, where it sat on display at the Lawton Park, while the real No. 767 was scrapped in Chicago in 1964."

If you live in FT Wayne or south of Cleveland, 765's whistle is a well-known and welcomed sound.

@DASCO2136 8 месяцев назад

I live in Brecksville, south of Cleveland and do volunteer work for FWRHS. One morning, when she was down on the CVSR for excursions, I was leaving my apartment to head to work, when I heard a distinct steam whistle in the distance. I just chuckled as I knew there was only one place where it came from

@michaelkraley2456 5 месяцев назад

I live in Seven Hills which is right up the street from Brecksville steam in the valley is awesome haven’t missed it since I found out about it. That was five years ago but hopefully they bring her back nothing like seeing an incredible piece of history thundering through the valley.

@justahillbilly7777 Год назад

Fun fact that most probably haven't thought of before: 765 was the engine on the head end of the longest passenger excursion, by consist length, in American history. First day of the 1992 New River Train, the consist was made up of THIRTY THREE full size passenger cars, it's tool car number 701, and it's auxiliary water tender. On the, uh, The Roundhouse podcast by Nick Ozorak, Rich Melvin tells of how he got the 765 to do either 60 or 65 miles per hour up Scary Hill with that consist just to prove the road foreman assigned to the run as part of the pilot crew wrong because Rich had thanked him the morning before on behalf of FWRHS for the increased speed over prior runs being allowed by CSX and the foreman had said they wouldn't see that speed until they were on the other side of Scary Hill. Well safe to say it seems like Rich took that comment kinda personal and that road foreman ended up being VERY impressed with the capabilities of the 765 whilst it was going UP Scary Hill. What's fascinating to me about that performance is that 765 isn't even the most powerful excursion locomotive in operation. With that in mind, I can't help but wonder what an engine like 1225, 2716, 611, or 1218 can really do, especially the 611. I seriously think that the 611 could haul a fully loaded 40 car New River Train at 70 or 75 MPH on the Hinton-bound run if that sorta performance were to ever be demanded of the engine.

@DiamondKingStudios Год назад

Considering that 611 was built to pull heavy passenger trains at speed through the mountains of West Virginia, that sounds doable.

@jwrailve3615 Год назад

I don’t know much about 611 but is it being retired for good for the foreseeable future or is it going through it’s fra inspection?

@rdfox76 Год назад

1225 actually did pull the New River Trains the one year that 765 didn't. As it turns out, she actually wasn't as good at pulling them as 765--her taller drivers (by all of one inch) meant that she had slightly less torque available than 765, so 1225 ended up struggling more with the mountain grades and she ended up about ten miles an hour slower than 765 with the same train. She's not bad, she's just more optimized for flatland operations than 765... but that does mean that she isn't quite as good in the mountains that you'd have trouble finding on the old PM lines between Grand Rapids and Detroit.

Interestingly, C&O 2716 was the first Steam Locomotive I ever saw, apart from the engines at Walt Disney World, and like you with 765, I had no idea how famous she was. I've already seen 765's sisters 763, 757, & 759, but I hope to someday see 765 running on the high iron in person.

@adventuresofamtrakcascades301 Год назад

You forgot to mention that in 2015, 765 undertook an incredible excursion to the Leigh Gorge Scenic Railway in Jim Thrope Pennsylvania to meet Reading and Northern 425, and they both did amazing whistle battles during 765s visit

Dad and I rode the excursion pulled by the masquerade 765 down to Pittsburgh when you were a little tyke, on that special day! The weather was beautiful too!

@michaellyvers4997 Год назад

I grew up with this locomotive being my play ground. My father is still active still on this locomotive. He is one of the few to get lifetime achievement awards. He was part of the crew who rebuilt it on Ryan road. Which is ironic. It's right down the road from it. Also I believe it was the last steam locomotive to leave Lima. Not last built. But I remember it was stored there and work was performed on her there. I remember visit the Lima locomotive works. Before it was destroyed.

I know what you mean about core memories. When I was little, my parent took me to see the USS Alabama.

When I was very young, my grandfather lived in Pennsylvania, and he would occasionally take my family and me to the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania close to where he lived. About a decade later when I had a renewed interest in steam locomotion, I saw a picture of a PRR steam locomotive and found it rather familiar. I still remember the Tuscan Red of the passenger cars, though I haven’t been in many years.

@thomasavensjr.2790 8 месяцев назад

I am glad that NKP engine 765 was preserved and is able to operate in excursion service during the modern railroading era, I enjoy seeing footage of engine 765 in operation as this is one of the Nickel Plate Road's most popular examples of steam power. The Berkshire (2-8-4) type locomotives were the Nickel Plate's most popular examples of steam power and it's great to see that 6 NKP Berkshire type engines still exist today being preserved for public display observation.

I grew up in New Haven, IN and Nickel plate road ran right behind my house. The facility where this train was restored is just a few miles from my old house. The whistle was always a welcome sound compared to the diesels when she is brought out for excursions.

@e-train765 Год назад

AHHHH!!!! I'VE LONG WAITED FOR THIS VIDEO!!! Well done sir!!! WELL DONE!!! 👏👏👏👏 Some interesting facts to note: - NKP 767 may have been the locomotive to break to ribbon for the elevated NKP project; but the first revenue train to actually use the elevated track was pulled by 765. - In 2016, 765 was renumbered to 767 to pay tribute to her display days, and if I'm not mistaken (correct me if I'm wrong) I beleive 765's aux water tender is still numbered as 767A. - 765's trip around the Horseshoe Curve was actually heavily inspired by NKP 759's trips around the curve. Seriously I am SO happy you got around to talk about my favorite locomotive; you're so lucky to have seen her in 1993. I found out about her in 1994 (I was 4 yrs old at the time and she was already taken out of service then) but when she started coming to Ohio and visiting the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad I got to see her in person for the very first time, and I cried because I was so happy to see her in person and not through videos and pictures. My grandfather was an engineer on the NKP back in the steam era, I got to hear LOTS of stories about the NKP Berkshires, and yes he was at the throttle of 765 many times during her first career. I've been very fortunate to see her many times on her visits to CVSR, I was there for the 'Berkshires in Bellevue' when she reunited with 757 (they locomotives even did a whistle blowing event), I chased 765 when she was doing the NS employee trips out of Bellevue, Ohio. She's going to be VERY busy over the next few years with the Indialana rail experience. Again THANK you SO MUCH for this video, it's brought a big smile to my face

Well done. I have loved steam locomotives since I was in the cab of on during its' trail run in Glasgow, Scotland, in1956 or '57. I was happy that the 587 got a mention here. I covered her move from Broad Ripple Park in Indianapolis, for the Associated Press, and I also covered her first excursion runs to Logansport, Indiana, for AP. Later I rode behind her and covered her runs leading the Indiana State Fair train during my years at the photographer of the Indiana State Fair. One of my photos of her billowing steam is permanently on display at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

@sp786fanboy9 Год назад

For your next railroad story, I was thinking you should talk about the East Broad Top Railroad. Although, I now also think you should start talking about British locomotive builders just to make your overseas fans happy. Even if it would cost you your ongoing streak of *not* having to talk about BR.

@DiamondKingStudios Год назад

Just avoid anything before 1948, or talk about narrow-gauge tourist lines. That will prevent talk of BR. But then again many of these builders continued into the 1950s, some making diesels, so IDK how to avoid British Railways.

Went to New Haven in 1979 see her run up and down the track they had her on. Chased her from East Wayne yard, I think it was her first main line run to Muncie, IN and back. Now that you say Lima correctly, maybe we can work on Wabash and Hoosiers. LOL Looking forward to her running on Indiana Northwestern railroad this year.

@jwrailve3615 Год назад

Growing up I would pray to get stuck by a slow mover at the crossing in Bloomington yard Texas. As a little kid I always imagined what it looked like when steam ran down the brownie, well, CP 2816 will more than likely be taking its way down through that same yard and I never thought I’d see the day but it looks it might be coming very soon. As a kid I’d only ever seen one caboose ever used through there, but back in the late 90’s early 2000’s it was very common to see SP bloody noses, bnsf pumpkins and warbonnetts, and sd90macs and I’ll always remember the first time the UP started having the American flag on the sides, nowadays although UP still owns the trackage, kcs (cpkc) is now the majority of traffic with trackage rights as both east and west of that section is kcs (cpkc) rail. Just two weeks ago I did see csx 7777 and wondered if I messed up by not taking a photo as it made me think of the movie unstoppable. I wouldn’t see an operating steam loco until 2019 when big boy made its way down south with the George bush diesel, literally teared up as I thought I’d never see one in person much less one operating. But seeing 2816 and it sounds like in the next year or so SP 982 will be running Texas coastal excursions it’s a good time to be alive with the steam revival.

@DiamondKingStudios Год назад

I can kind of see that. When I started getting into trains in middle school, I tended to focus more on British steam locomotives, partly because I thought they looked smoother on the outside and more colorful than the locomotives here in the US. Okay, maybe watching “Thomas and Friends” in preschool contributed to that, but otherwise, they constructed beautiful steam locomotives in England, a belief further reinforced by a recent trip to the National Rail Museum in York. 4472 wasn’t there that day (probably due to excursions), but I got to see 4468 and other exemplary vehicles.
