NKP 731 on the Pit |
Description: |
It's Sunday August 18, 1957 as Nickel Plate Road Berkshire #731 sits on the service tracks in Bellevue, Ohio. None of the NKP's 80 Berkshires were built with Mars lights. The bracket and Mars light were added to brand new 779 in 1949 for the Chicago Railroad Fair. The entire fleet of 112 Berkshires got them in 1950-51 and ran with them on until the end of steam in 1958. In less than a year, all steam on the NKP would be done. Photo by Jim Pope. |

NKP 2-8S4 #741, Nickel Plate Road (New York, Chicago & St. Louis RR) |
Description: |
As an example of the 2nd class of Berkshires produced by the Kima Locomotive Works, #741 possesses all of the powerful look and abilities of its previous sisters. 69" drivers and 245 psi standard boiler pressure on these like the other Berkshircs. #741 met its end when it was sold for scrap on 2/7/62 to Luria Brosl Co. This is an August, 1970 reprint of the C.W. Burns photo |
