    Great video!! I miss northern VA. When I was about 4 or 5 I got to see the Southern 4501 in Haymarket, VA, and when I was around 9 or 10 I got to see the N&W 1218 in Manassas, VA. The 1218 and 4501 I saw totally by accident. I just happened to be in the right place, at the right time.

      Sou brasileiro sinto vergonha pelo descaso com as nossas ferrovia dado pelo nosso governo e uma vergonha quando fizeram o golpe de 64 tínhamos 60mil km de ferrovia hoje temos 26mil km

    does anyone have to agree this whistle is way worst than any other 611 whistle? I'm just saying

    Why is the train backing up @ about the 19 minute mark, anyone know?

    • @FanRailer
      @FanRailer  8 років тому

      In order to get from Manassas station onto the B line, the train needs to reverse out towards Broad Run until it clears the south leg of the wye. Then it runs up the wye and onto the B line. Look at the area in Google Maps if that's not a clear enough explanation for you.

    • @ancientsgate
      @ancientsgate 8 років тому

      Fan Railer Thank you so much for the info. I actually did wonder if it was backing up to access another line. I don't know much about trains and how the railways are laid out, but I've enjoyed the videos of this fine old steam engine.

    Your video looks good but was making me seasick. This is because you left image stabilization on when mounted on the tripod. Rookie mistake.

      peterzpictstube What tripod? lol. All of this footage is from hand-held iPhone 6 devices.

      Fan Railer I think he's trying to prove how clever he is. Great footage of a fabulous loco. Thanks.

    • @FanRailer
      @FanRailer  9 років тому

      lol thanks. It's whatever haha. Not all of us are "professional" photographers. I personally abhor the use of tripods; I prefer to remain highly mobile.

    • @peterzpictstube
      @peterzpictstube 9 років тому

      Fan Railer My bad you have way too steady of hands, your footage looked just like my HV20 on a tripod and the IS hunting. But seriously your iPhone shoots great video I have a 5s and its good but shaky due to no stabilization. I hope the 6s has the stabilizer, I am not down for having a phone as big as the plus in my pocket.

    • @FanRailer
      @FanRailer  9 років тому

      peterzpictstube Yea, the differences between the 5s camera and the 6 camera is enormous (in addition to the stabilizer, the 6 can shoot in 60 FPS, something that earlier models couldn't do; probably also contributed to your motion sickness lol). I don't see why they would get rid of the stabilizer in the next edition of the 6, seeing as it works pretty well (if my 6 didn't have a stabilizer, this video would be unwatchable lol). I do hear they might be adding 4k shooting capability to the 6s camera.

    Greetings from the Train Lord in South Australia a long way away from this epic action. Very nicely done. Makes me appreciate more my HO scale 611 on my layout. Just subscribed to your channel and please do the same for me. I have videos of our train club located in an old British colonial railway station next to the cruise ship terminal.
