It was frosty on Monday morning when Kris & I visited the Strasburg Rail Road. Among the equipment we photographed was the famous Norfolk & Western J-Class 4-8-4 number 611.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent years this magnificent late-era steam locomotive has made guest appearances on the Strasburg Rail Road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The enormous streamliner seems a bit out of place on the rural branchline, but it was great to see and photograph this machine again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The big locomotive was cold. We were not so fortunate to catch it in action, although over the years, I have photographed 611 on various occasions under steam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All photos were made with a Nikon Z7-II with Nikkor Z-series 24-70mm zoom lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
