When she was put away in 94-95 her flue time was up and as such would require new flues. Overall she is in great shape but she has been sitting for 16 years now almost as long as she sat before which was 23 years. Everything would need to be looked at/rebuilt as before.

The 611 is such a powerful and graceful machine, to see her in person is just amazing. I miss the days of chasing the "J".....Hope to see those 70" drivers turning again someday.

Well it needs 2 things to sound more like what you are used to on the 611. One is 60lbs more steam pressure and second to be mounted down in the recessed area on top of the "J" which affected the sound.. Great video!

Great video! But the 611 will never see the rails if NS is to pay the bill. They are quite content with their current program with the TVRM. 611 needs a private group to step in with money and skill. NS has said if someone else restores her then they will consider operating her.
