Nickel Plate Road 587 is a 2-8-2 USRA Light Mikado steam locomotive built in September 1918 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works for the Lake Erie and Western Railroad as its number 5541. In 1923, the LE&W was merged into the New York, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad, ("Nickel Plate Road"), and allocated 587 as its new number in 1924. In 2003, the locomotive was being restored by the Indiana Transportation Museum (ITM) in Noblesville, Indiana. However in 2018, the museum was currently being moved to Logansport, Indiana, forcing No. 587 to be stored in Ravenna, Kentucky by the Kentucky Steam Heritage Corp until the ITM can raise funds to restore the locomotive to operating condition.
