It's not everyday you get a great opportunity to be in a photo with a classic steam locomotive like NKP 765.
She was in town leading a train with the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railway for their annual Steam in the Valley event. It just so happened that the Akron Marathon was also taking place today. I was on the marathon escort detail on our police motor unit and I knew 765 was going to be there around 11am. We got a small window of opportunity to go shoot a few pics of her before she left. Much to our surprise, the engineer said we could park our bikes right next to her and get some photos. I'm second from the right...
