I was born in So.Bend in 1949. By the time I became interested in trains in 1956-7 all passenger trains were pulled by Diesel's. Grand Trunk ran Steam freight until, I believe,early '58. So,I was able to see live steam,first hand. By then maybe 20% steam so I was so happy when I could see smoke coming our way while parked at the crossing. My dad pointed out a couple of 1930's Pierre Marquette boxcars. My paternal grandfather helped lay the first GT tracks in So.Bend around 1908. New York Central also had tracks into S.B. and also the South Shore Railroad.
The theme song had my toe tapping. I grew up in the Chicago area, so Indiana is not unfamiliar to me. 7:03 - Nice to see a young lady (in short shorts) enjoying a bit of railfanning. 10:30 - Some people think the roar of a motorcycle is cool, but in this case it sounded like someone had the all-you-can-eat baked beans special. Once again, I realize that I've been too busy watching train videos to notice that I haven't been to the sites where you have to checks the "I'm over 18" box.
You look sharp and clean 765.
LOVE STEAM QUEEN💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅💅

Looks so great with the wheels blacked out
I would definitely agree! Though the white tires do add a little flare!
Interesting to see the wheels blacked out, though I like the white tires a bit more
Love that Mars lite!

765, without white walls, is the best 765 out there, I will not hear otherwise, blacked out driving wheels ftw
Amazing catches!
Awesome catches and great long video
Saw her once when she overnighted at Logansport.
she looks like when she was in 1984-1993 and 759 in her excursion career
I want to personally restore 759!
Iam hope to see her this spring or summer
765 and the big boy will be busy for the FIFA world cup which is coming up soon
strong signal
765 should reunite with both 1225 and 611.
Would love to see it!🚂❤️
