Saturday was the birthday of day is Ross Rowland, who was in charge of restoring Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 No. 759.
Bob Farkas dug out these photographs to help mark the occasion.
It is Sept. 8, 1968, in Conneaut and these images were made with a twin lens reflex camera.
NKP 759 is eastbound crossing the trestle of the former NKP mainline over Conneaut Creek.
Bob reports who does not know who the two photographers who are in front of him are.
Presented is a full frame scene and a cropped version.
