    The best thing about this video is that I don't see any diesels in the consist.
    I am glad to see such a great piece of American history restored for all to see.

    Great Shots Heath! I got the opportunity to chase the 611 on the Manassas to Front Royal trips and I loved every minute of it. So much so that I'm going down to Roanoke July 4th weekend. Subbed.

    20:54 for some reason 611 is making the sound that most steamers have! TON TON TON TON TON TON TON TON TON TON TON TON! What sound is that?

    Western Maryland,No#1309 4-6-6-4
    N&W,No#611 4-10-4 i may be wrong i love 611 whistle. But my favorite n&w train was No#1218 4-6-6-4

    Is the intermodal that goes by in the background at 25:30 the same one you have 611 pacing at the 6:00 mark?
