You are about to visit one of our nation's finest railroads - the Nickel Plate Road®. It's no longer with us because of its merger with the N&W on October 16, 1964, but it lives on in words and pictures. So - it's time to board NKP Passenger Train #5, "The City Of Chicago", and travel from Buffalo to Chicago and all points in between. Pull off at Conneaut, Ohio and visit the Conneaut Historical Railroad Museum. Stop at Bellevue, Ohio, "The Hub Of The Nickel Plate", and visit the Mad River & NKP Museum. Take a break at Ft. Wayne, Indiana and admire the NKP 765. Pull off on a few sidings in between and visit my Links and Search Page for a great list of RR web sites, and my Train Show Depot to discover where you can spend more money on your train collection.

So - for a great railroad journey, click on All Aboard below and we'll see you there!

All Aboard
