NKP 765 from Decatur, IL to St. Louis

From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and shut down my operation.

In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field.

HD VIDEO: NKP 765 from Decatur, IL to St. Louis video preview

My brother and I teamed up again to document Nickel Plate Road steam locomotive #765 making a trip from Decatur, Illinois into St. Louis. Here is a scene from Stonington, Illinois:

We plan to be out Saturday, Sunday and Monday for 765's trips in the St. Louis metro area and the return trip to Decatur.

Thanks for the video! My children were entranced. There is a 2500 class locomotive (#2542) restored and on display here in McComb, MS; the only other one is in Centralia (#2500). They loved seeing a similar train in motion although standing next to 70 inch wheels is always a little exhilarating too. (: (the #765 is a 2-8-4, the #2542 is a 4-8-2)
