Out of the morning fog, she emerges! The legendary Norfolk & Western 611, alive with steam, power, and purpose. It’s more than just a breathtaking sight — it’s living history in motion. Moments like this are why we do what we do at the Virginia Museum of Transportation! This is why we wake up early, This is why we stay up late, This is why we preserve, This is why we steam! | Norfolk & Western Class J No. 611
