Here is 611 westbound on its final run on Mother's Day weekend. This one taken at the East End of Shawsville, Va. No words are needed to describe the power, you can feel it!

Another neat one from you, thanks for posting, Jim. I was a little higher up at Shawsville, but shot only stills. Here's a video from the return leg to Roanoke, a little west of Salem. No great sound, just nice afternoon light.

Here's a link so's you can watch Big Jim's video in full screen!

Boy, loved that broadside view, the big engine digging in, the rail washer on. High speed

runbys are something, but a big fella on grade working hard, that's steam at it's best!

How about that ding dong in the red truck.

Good stuff, Jimmy. Hope you can run 'er someday, or at least be a pilot engineer aboard her.
