Norfolk & Western 611

Norfolk & Western 611—known as the “Spirit of Roanoke”—is one of the most celebrated steam locomotives in American rail history. Built in Roanoke, Virginia, in 1950, the streamlined J-class 4-8-4 is now owned and preserved by the Virginia Museum of Transportation.

This collection follows 611 from preparation and anticipation through the power, smoke, and spectacle of its return to the rails.
