The 765 was first assigned to Bellevue, Ohio, where it was used primarily on the Nickel Plate's fast freight trains. After the war, she worked primarily out of a classification yard in the east side of Fort Wayne, Indiana. Her final revenue run came on June 14, 1958, only fourteen years after her construction.

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or career:
“An original artist is unable to copy. So he has only to copy in order to be original.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
“I began my editorial career with the presidency of Mr. Adams, and my principal object was to render his administration all the assistance in my power. I flattered myself with the hope of accompanying him through [his] voyage, and of partaking in a trifling degree, of the glory of the enterprise; but he suddenly tacked about, and I could follow him no longer. I therefore waited for the first opportunity to haul down my sails.”
—William Cobbett (1762–1835)
