I stopped for a moment in Maryville when the 154 pulled in. It was awesome to see two steam trains on that day. BTW, this is my neck of the woods and I've driven over and walked the track right around the Vestal area. Knew exactly where Mt. Olive Rd. is too. All I know is that now, I've gotta get on one of these trains!

Is this on the Three River's Rambler or what? Doesn't say so anywhere on here.

[csx6900]

@SierraRailway If you'd read the description you'd know. It was on the NS K&A Line between Knoxville and Maryville. Thanks for the viewership!

Excellent video, Evan.

@kenjr29mfl Thanks, Ken!

Hmm. Southern Railway's finest. W. Graham Claytor and his brother would be very proud.

Another great production. Although I like the steam footage, I have to say I loved hearing the G&O 1123 just as much as hearing 630!

[csx6900]

@SEABOARDSYSTEMfan I figured some people would like that! Thanks for the comment!

[csxnstrainman]

Must of been a bad day to take the chopper out to railfan.

[csx6900]

@Sher481 Lol, yeah I guess. Not too sunny, but I think it was G&O that chartered the chopper. I saw some of the shots they got... magnificent. Thanks for the comment, Joey!

[brickbuilder711]

Great package, Evan... I like the train meet!

[csx6900]

@brickbuilder711 Thanks, Tolga! Yeah that stupid NS cop almost screwed up the shot, but he got out of the way just in time.

That one scene with the 154 slipping coming around that curve was nice Evan.......sounded like she had her hands full with 5 heavyweights.

[MotoLinz]

Great video, Evan. I'm glad you got shots at the bridge in Rockford. We paused their briefly and thought it was a lovely spot but moved along since we wanted to get the boys a little closer to it.

[csx6900]

@MotoLinz Thanks, Lindsay!

[MotoLinz]

@MotoLinz Oy - I can't believe I typed "their" instead of "there." So much for all my higher level book learnin'.

[csx6900]

@MotoLinz Lol, I didn't even notice.  What's a book?

[CarNutandTrainNut2]

Sweet video Evan!!

But why did they have the vestibule doors closed?

[csx6900]

@CarNutandTrainNut2 Thanks! I didn't even notice... but I don't know why.
