In this action-packed DVD, follow the indomitable #611 pulling famed named trains, “The Pocahontas” and “Powhatan Arrow,” in the 1950s, as well as a tragic wreck that nearly became her undoing. Then, in the 1980s, stunning aerial photography hovers above cliffs and snakes through hidden hollers deep in the mountains, tracking #611 through West Virginia and Ohio. The streamlined bullet nose ‘J’ Class 4-8-4 engine steps out on one of her rare trips across the summits of the Norfolk and Western main line between Roanoke and Portsmouth.

611 was pulling the first excursion for the Norfolk Southern in 1982 and she continued on the excursion duties all the way until 1994. In 1994, The Norfolk Southern ended their Steam Program, so once again, 611 is back on museum public display. 611 is the engine that could and the Norfolk Southern launched the 21st Century Steam Program in 2011. In 2014, 611 travels to North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer, North Carolina for her 2nd restoration.
