Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society - New Haven, IN
The Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society (FWRHS) successfully preserves and interprets the railroad heritage of Fort Wayne, with a special emphasis on the Nickel Plate Road. Most notably, the non-profit organization owns and operates Nickel Plate Road 765, a 1944-built 2-8-4 "Berkshire" type steam locomotive. Throughout the year, the group engages with the public through operating excursion rides behind the engine, or hosting other events, such as the annual open house, where in addition to the 765 operating, one can find other attractions such as caboose rides, vendors, train layouts, and food trucks. The gallery below contains images from the FWRHS facility in New Haven, Indiana.
