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):

This was 765's first big test after being restored to steam. she more than lived up to expectations.

The PRR K4 3 Chime on 765 reminds of 1361 and LIRR 39!

1982 was the year Southern merged with Norfolk and Western to form Norfolk Southern Corp. In 1998-1999 they took over part of Conrail's lines in the north. 765 ran on NS between 2012-2015 for 21st Century Steam. 2013-2015 it pulled public excursions on NS. I rode two of them in PA in May 2013 and Aug 2015.
