It doesn't get much better than this! Steam in the 21st Century.. My 1,500th accepted photo to Railpictures.Net displays NKP 765 leading the all day Bureau passenger excursion through rural Atkinson, eastbound along the Iowa Intersate "First Subdivision". NKP 765 was featured in numerous excursions during the 2011 Train Festival events, with the Bureau trip being the most popular excursion.

Pace and pan shots of trains from on the ground or in the air. If you're not in the locomotive cab or on-board the train, it's the next best thing to being there.
