The only other film 765 was in was "Four Friends" made in 1981.

No commercials to speak of other than this short film the FWHS tried to sell to Coca Cola and they didn't bite:

On a side note the NKP 587 was the star in a direct to video kiddie film called "587: The Great Train Robbery"

Define "bite."

We didn't try to sell anything other than ideas.

I just had lunch with members of their Corporate Communications staff a few weeks ago. They were very precise that a component of future adverting may very well harken back to days of old...

765 did appear on a Batman comic book cover -- obviously used for the artist's reference beyond anything else.

Of all things this turned up recently; is it 765 or the 1225 at 0:24?

Oh, it's a remake of the low-budget drive-in movie, "The Giant Gila Monster" of 1959.

I guess Hollywood is really out of ideas to remake that one.

Haha, yep. They used stock footage of the 765 from a photo charter and shot their locomotive scenes at the French Lick Railway.

Not exactly Hollywood, but then again neither is the Coke spot either.
