  • Cross Norfolk Southern's 100-year-old Kenova Bridge over the Ohio River behind historic Nickel Plate Road steam locomotive no. 765 in footage from our upcoming documentary.
    The 765 is on its way from Williamson, West Virginia to Conway, Pennsylvania in August, 2012 and is carrying a whistle from a Norfolk & Western locomotive Y6A class no 2173. Follow the 765 this year: www.fortwaynerailroad.org
    The bridge, on NS' Pocahontas Division main line, carries essential freight rail traffic and supports economic development in the Tri-State region and Ohio River Valley: www.nscorp.com/nscportal/nscor...

    I bet when you all ran over the old C&O tracks, a flood of New River Train memories came back to mind.

      The 765 is wearing a N&W hooter whistle because it's traveling over former N&W trackage.

    I gotta ask what is the fascination with a hooter type whistle? They definitely are not as melodic as a multi chime. Especially when you've heard an NKP Berkshire with her OEM whistle. Nice video but no 765 cameo? At least you could have run a little dirty and given us some smoke over the top.

      I thought the same until I heard it on the 765 during this trip. You're right, it's not as melodic as a multi chime but the echo off of the hills is haunting, especially from a distance. And I can say, it's about the loudest steam whistle I've ever heard lol.
