Indiana Northeastern 2022 Railcar with NKP 765

This is from the August 27-28 NARCOA railcar run on the Indiana Northeastern Railroad. This was a two day trip that covered three states and right around 150 miles. This is taken from the front of my Fairmont MT19 railcar on a GoPro Hero 5 camera. We were legally operating on the railroad and had a railroad employee as an escort and we all carry insurance.

This trip also included sharing the railroad with the NKP 765 steam locomotive that was doing public runs from Edon Ohio to Hillsdale MI. The start of the video is the early morning meet of the 765 in Hamilton IN the radio transmission in the background is the crew of the 765 to our railroad escort. After the steam train passed we continued east to Edon Ohio for our morning turn and rest break. The next clip is us slowing for a construction project and a spot of concern from the railroad where we had to slow to a walking pace. The next clips were of some of the small towns we passed some with old depots and small grain elevators to some of the largest grain elevators I have seen. Finally ended up to Hillsdale where we shared the yard with the Little River railroad who was providing rides for the passengers of the 765 while it was on the three hour layover. Final clip was of the NKP 765 leaving town to head back south to Edon.
