We talk with the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society's Kelly Lynch about today's test run of the Nickel Plate Road 765 to Muncie and back. The test run was in anticipation of her many Norfolk Southern Railroad excursions scheduled for this summer.

 

The 765 is a Berkshire 2-8-4 steam locomotive owned and operated by the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society. Behind the 765 is NS Heritage unit 8100 in Nickel Plate colors. The 8100 is a General Electric Evolution Series ES44AC 4400HP locomotive.
