My mom and I visited Train Festival 2011 for three of its four days, and the first big event we followed was Nickel Plate 2-8-4 #765's excursion from Rock Island to Bureau, IL, on July 22nd. I caught the train passing through Atkinson, IL, turning around in Bureau, and seen here in Tiskilwa, IL, as it sped back towards Rock Island. This event was my first time to see #765, and it was very exciting! It was also my third time to catch Amtrak's heritage locomotive #156, and my first time to see heritage unit #66. Enjoy!
Beautiful!!!
