    I rode behind 611 Sometime in the 80's from Roanoke to Lynchburg. What a thrill. Thanks for the memories, and your excellent footage.

    8:51 Love this shot! The location, the angle, the sound and speed of the train as 611 hits that final curve.

    Thank you so much! It must have been a pretty big effort to get all that footage, and I want you to know I really appreciate it.

    I love the fact that they run this without an out of place diesel electric in the string

    Lovely scene at Montgomery Tunnels as the smoke lingers around the train!

      Oren Helbok it was probably one of my top three favorite shots from that weekend, and the whole runby could only be described as an experience. My choices were between the tunnel and Lyndall Curve but I'm actually kinda glad I went with the tunnel 😁

    The dissolves and editing make this a real pleasure to watch. The pony troting across the field at 10:20 is an added charm. Good job! I thank you. :-)

    4:51 why do steam engines sometimes give out long hisses instead of puffs?

    Nice video! You caught me beginning at 9:03 in the very bottom left corner of your shot. I am the guy with the yellow vest on.

    Is it me or does the 611 almost always stall but the r b m n 425 never stalls on hometown hill
