Thanks for posting this. 611 has a special place in my life because it was the first excursion steam engine I rode behind. Great to see her make a return trip to Strasburg.
What a great train! My father-in-law once engineered that one out of Roanoke. He passed away in 2009. I saw her at the transportation museum in Roanoke in July of 2017. A real beauty.
I was unaware 611 was going to return to Strasburg. I happened by to have my son (17) see the other trains there Friday of Memorial Day Weekend and saw the 611 there and was surprised. I bought tickets for the family that day for a ride the following day. An RV trip to the area with a big surprise for us all! No video does this locomotive justice. To see and feel it's power for yourself is an experience.
Dear 611...what a beautiful engine. I've had the privilege of riding behind it several times. And, I love that whistle, so very special. Thanks and God bless you!
@@spproductions5103 So you call these things "Chips"? Instead of Crispity Cruncy Munchie Crackerjack Snacker Nibbler Snap Crack N Pop Westpoolchestershireshire Queen's Lovely Jubily Delights? That's kinda cringe, innit bruv?
The crew of the 611 told me she was pulled to Paradise (where Strasburg meets the main line). She was steamed up prior to arrival and ran under her own power to Strasburg Depot. She lacks the required electronics to run under power on the main without Diesel Electric.

Thank you! I'm sure your father-in-law would've loved being in the cab on the ferry ride to Strasburg

Good to see move under its own power without a diesel tow
Only the last 4 miles into Strasburg

@@fsctrucking yes. She was hot to keep lubricants moving and such.
Nice video! Saw her pull up at paradise!
very good video, hopefully we will always be given health and always work
Despite this ferry move was delayed by a week glad to see the j has finally arrived back at strasburg for the first time in almost 18 months
Like sorry be like this but no one cars but sussy
Current objective: survive.
Thumbs up liked for you.
Beautiful
The Symbol for the move was H14 just to let you know it got changed before they entered the corridor
That's epic!
2:59 Those are the railfans I heard talking while I was watching 90 on VRF the other day.
forgive me this isnt the steram engiine i follow close as it wont come west :) but why is it being moved for the summer?
Welp it’s going to a museum R I P 611
it belongs in roanoke,va to run excursions!
Nice! Why did the SD70ACe got removed in Enola instead it could do lite power back to Enola?
I watched this live
What time did that electric Amtrak train come through?
About 3-3:15pm ish, shortly before NS 955 arrived with 611
Do you know if it past through North Carolina
Greensboro north carolina becuase i railfan thare
Why is an SD70ACE required for the run?
Hey no wheel slip
The 611 has not been added to the Train Simulator
Yes she has. In a way. K&L Production. They have a UA-cam video of it.
@@theofficerfactory2625 I'm talking about the Train Simulator on the steam website
Is 611 there currently? Or was this last year?
611 is currently at Strasburg. These videos were taken as it was arriving on NS train 955 on Wednesday.
@@EastPennRailfanProductions thanks for the info how long is she going to be there? A couple weeks?
@@rudycarlson8245 611 will be at Strasburg until October. www.strasburgrailroad.com/611-at-strasburg/
@@EastPennRailfanProductions thanks
Is she being restored or something? or did she run excursions all this time?
They are doing special events at Strasburg. This was done last year as well
Okay, thanks :)
