Over a four-day period last week. 15 members wired up and completed the auxiliary generator; assembled the main generator; completed high voltage wiring in the cab; added new circuits and conduit for headlights, class lights; removed the rear sanders for replacement; installed a new rear pilot, and more! These tasks and others all part of a final push to prep the locomotive for remaining bodywork, sandblasting – and paint! #historicpreservation #indianalandmarks #dieselsarecool #nkp #emd #nickelplate #igersfortwayne #diesel

Last week, 15 volunteers tackled a sizable list of projects on Nickel Plate Road diesel locomotive no. 358 and we couldn’t be more grateful! We’re getting closer to getting this vintage machine moving under its own power again — and will begin prepping for the next big step: PAINT. 🎨 #dieselsarecooltoo #emd #progressrail #restoration #historicpreservation #hoosier #indianalandmarks #nkp #nickelplateroad

It’s time to brush up on our Nickel Plate diesel history. A certain project of ours is gearing up for the summer! #dieselsarecooltoo #fortwayne #emd #progressrail #norfolksouthern #nickelplateroad #railroadhistory #preservation

Following three years of meticulous restoration work by our volunteers, our century-old Wabash Railroad caboose has been completed! 90% of the caboose was replaced and the results are stunning. In Project Manager David DePanicis' own words, "rebuilding a caboose is a lot like building a house with your best friends" and we couldn't help but agree. Thanks to our dedicated members and supporters for bringing this historic piece of Fort Wayne railroading back to life. #igersfortwayne #indianalandmarks #fortwayne #hoosiergrammers #wabash #wabashrailroad #caboose #preservation #historicpreservation #woodworking #carpentry #carpentryskills #vintage #savingplaces #preservationinaction
