@Orca369 Norfolk Southern Railway has been around for quite some time. It was a regional carrier started in 1942. In 1982 Norfolk Southern Corp. used the Railway to buy out Southern and Norfolk & Western. Also those aren't RS-11 they are High Hood GP-38-2.

Orca369, what d'ya mean, "you can't believe NW is league w/ NS"? The two companies, Southern Railway and Norfolk & Western merged to BECOME Norfolk Southern way back in '82. Both were fine companies in their own right, and one of the last ones to remain standing without being gobbled up by mega-corporations and raiders! They were cash-rich, shrewd railroads who saw the merger as a block to such take-over! As NS it is still to be envied by its peers!

Wait a minute... Norfolk And Western isn't running anymore?! Her last run was on December 7th, 1994?! THAT'S BULLSHIT!!! I want her running again! I love that train! SO UNFAIR!!!

Hmmm. I've never seen a Norfolk Southern RS-11 before. And I still can't believe that Norfolk Sotuhern is in league with Norfolk And Western.

Not very often did #611 run without an auxillary tender.

Very nice video . im from germany and i like the j so much and the Y6 is a great machine. I have a 1/10 Scale model of this engine in 5"Gauge. I send you a video answer from the Y6. The N&W is the best RR. Best wishes from Germany...
