Andy's Angles: Old Nickel Plate

 

A Nickel Plate Road engine has been receiving a lot of interest lately.  It's the one that was pushed in to Scranton in May, after decades out west.

The Nickel Plate name is no stranger to our area, even though the bulk of the operation was along the southern edge of the Great Lakes, from Chicago to Buffalo.

I found this gen at Steamtown in Scranton several weeks ago.
