NKPHTS 2007 Calendar
|
 Front Cover: The Wheeling's Berkshires were never quite as well-known as the 700s, working most of their days in obscurity in the Ohio coal fields. Six gained a greater degree of fame when they were reassigned to the Nickel Plate District in 1957; example 802 strikes a truly regal pose at East 55th Street during her swan song. PHOTO: James M. Semon Collection

 Back Cover: Hoosier Valley Railroad Museum volunteer Bob Barcus rides the rear platform of restored NKP 471 on a test run at the museum on September 3, 2005. Mentally substitute a Nickel Plate switcher for the GE 70-tonner and this could be a scene from the 471's youth -- even the signal is an NKP veteran, formerly at Hibbard. PHOTO: Tom Travis |
