N&W 611: Going Home

Train Tuesdays

Arrowguy173 posted some awesome footage of Norfolk and Western Class J number 611 going home to Roanoke, VA after its restoration at the Southern Railway Steam Shops in Irondale, AL in the early 1980s. My favorite clip is Part 3 (shown below), when the locomotive arrives in Roanoke, but Parts 1 and 2 are also well worth watching.
