Looks like she's one happy lady at 60 mph. Every freight she passes you can almost hear "remove yourself from my path peasant, I'm the queen and better then you". Maybe someday she can get run to like this again, we can dream. Great video, thanks for sharing
Wonderful footage of the 611. I especially like the shot climbing Lancing hill, at 9:52, she looses her feet, Frank Collins catches the slip super quick and snaps the throttle right back out.

Back when you can run the actual speed limit
This is better than pentrex videos. Great job on the audio and video

Awesome Tape!!
Just to think it’s pulling around 3 million pounds at those speeds
Thanks for sharing that, I saw 611 5 times!
Nice. Better than "Sampler" as it shows the locomotive with it’s matching tank and without the extra bunker.
Are there any plans to bring the 611 and the heritage consist to Harrisburg for an excursion???
No.
