Can we say that the dry spell of steam in the East is easing up a bit? Thanks to everyone for all of your hard work and dedication so all of us steam guys here in the East can have something big happening for the first time in a long while.

Possibly one of the most beautiful, if not functional steam locomotives ever built. I look forward to the day when another can run in tandem with 765! Congratulations on giving us all a living, breathing, Nickle Plate Berkshire!

Assuming 765 and 1225 both make it to Ohio, will this be the first time the two have been together since the NRHS convention in Huntington? I was not there but the pictures I have seen of the event are amazing!

The 765 and her dedicated crew are truly fine examples of preservation AND operations know-how. The New River Gorge trips were fantastic. I missed Huntington 1991 and truly hope both the 765 and 1225 can duplicate some of those scenes on the Ohio Central this summer. All I can say is "welcome back!"
