Nickel Plate Road 759 is a preserved S-2 class 2-8-4 "Berkshire" type steam locomotive built by the Lima Locomotive Works in Lima, Ohio as a member of the S-2 class for the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad, commonly referred to as the "Nickel Plate Road".

The locomotive was restored to operating condition in 1967 by New York commodity broker Ross Rowland for use in hauling his Golden Spike Centennial Limited, a special commemorative train that celebrated the 100th anniversary of the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1969.

759 pulled numerous excursions for Ross Rowland and Steamtown until being retired once more and placed back on display in 1977.

As of 2025, the locomotive remains on static display at the Steamtown National Historic Site in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and sibling engine No.

759 was one of 80 2-8-4 Berkshire type steam locomotives built for the Nickel Plate between 1934 and 1949 for fast freight duties.

759 was purchased by steam locomotive enthusiast, F. Nelson Blount on October 16, 1962 and subsequently moved to his Steamtown, U.S.A. collection in North Walpole, New Hampshire.

759 to service for steam powered fan trips hosted by Rowland's High Iron Company (HICO).

759 was taken to the Norfolk and Western Railroad's former Nickel Plate roundhouse in Conneaut, Ohio, the same place No.

759 was painted blue and gold for a special train celebrating the 100th anniversary of the driving of the golden spike.

[5] Additionally, it wore a Hancock long-bell 3-chime whistle, which came from one of the streamlined N&W class J 4-8-4 steam locomotives.

While it was in storage, D&H employees had neglected to completely drain the 759's boiler and left water in it which froze causing a considerable amount of damage to No.

759 joined the rest of the Steamtown collection in 1984 when it was moved from Bellows Falls, Vermont to Scranton, Pennsylvania.

759 was one of the two American built steam locomotives considered by Steamtown to be restored to operating condition, the other being Boston and Maine 3713, which was ultimately chosen over 759, most likely due to clearance issues on the turntable (in order for 759 to fit, all of the safety railings that surround the turntable pit in the areas open to visitors have to be removed).

In addition to having the asbestos removed, 759 had all new jacketing (cladding in UK terminology) applied as well as its bell, which had been in storage re-installed.

759 to operational condition, Steamtown has stated that they have little interest in restoring 759, citing that it is too large for their use and that another Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4, No.
