Berkshire Through The Bluegrass documents NKP 765 operating excursions for the Southern Railroad In the fall of 1982. 765 was leased to the Southern to fill in for recently restored C&O Kanawha 2716 (which was used extensively by the Southern between 1981 & 1982 until the locomotive was pulled from service, due to firebox problems.) & pulled 22 trips for the Southern Steam Program. For those interested in learning more about 765's time in the Southern Steam Program, please consider watching the Southern Steam Program Documentary (also on the channel):
