Nickel Plate 765 is fresh out of Ft. Wayne, IN kicking off the second excursion day. The locomotive put on quite a show through the town of Roanoke with a huge cloud of steam and smoke. This shot kicked off an incredible day of chasing and photography!
The Van Swearingen Brothers standarized freight power for their railroads with nearly identical 2-8-4 Berkshires. Two of these engines are still in excursion service.
Taking a look at the same train and scene as captured by different photographers. The best way to view will be to sort by photo date so the photos are grouped together.
