Sounds of Steam - Postwar Passenger Queen (Norfolk and Western 611)

The Norfolk & Western's Class J locomotive was one of the finest machines ever forged into being. Sit back, relax and take a listen to one of these magnificent engines on the head of one of the N&W's hotshot passenger trains.

That is awesome!

Norfolk & Western 611 is a cool 4-8-4 “Northern”. I have rode behind that locomotive in September 5th 2021 at the Strasburg Railroad. They also had Norfolk & Western 475 in operation when I was there.

I recognized some of the audio as that of O. Winston Link. His recordings were unbelievable, as was his photography.

It's almost accurate, Except for that whistle :(

[@PennsyPro]

The whistle here is accurate for a J Class; it originated from no. 610.
