It's always hard to say goodbye to an engine we love so much. But hang on to your love for the tender engine. I'll bet in a few years, somewhere down the line, the sun will rise to reveal no. 2156 chuffing towards you and whistling joyfully. Be patient, and one day happiness will be yours to share with no. 2156.
So glad you caught this. While it will probably never happen, it would still be a dream come true for many if 2156, 1218, and 611 were all in steam once again. May 2156 be peacefully at home in St. Louis.
By the way this Greg’s son,Hayden and I am so interested in trains especially famous steam locomotives like 844 and 1218 and number 611 has already returned to the rails, she’s in excursion service right now in 2020 because I have a steam locomotive book and it reads : “ 611 returned to excursion service and is still on the rails.
@colestrains1 No, 2156 is a Y6a. The Y6c was never built. But yeah, the earlier Y6s and Y6as, 2156 included, were upgraded to nearly, if not, completely match the Y6b.
Very neat! I went to Dollywood on Monday and got some shots and I uploaded a video on the train. Also I am going back sometime in early July to get the rest of my shots and some cab ride footage.
I’ve enjoyed see this! My Grandfather, William S. Armentrout, was the engineer of this engine it’s entire work history.

That would be a great thing to see.
You know what would be cool? 2156 in front then 611 then in the back 475 but that would never happen.
in memory of 2156
Great production with a beautiful camera. Thanks for creating and posting.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Glad I saw it while I was in Roanoke
You’re catching heritage units like in the span of a week. Nice catch on 8104 and 2156!
Thanks, I guess I got lucky
Shame the mighty Y had to leave, but at least she's got a good home in St. Louis. Perhaps, with luck, she might return to Roanoke.
Jonah Snyder if she came back to life yeah
Maybe someday
Hope 611 as well can try and return home to Roanoke but I don't see it happening
i think the queen is staying in strasburg i think?

Her wheels make it sound like she's chugging, lol, hope she returns home safe, spot on filming my friend;)
Thanks! She's already back on display in St. Louis.
Glad to see it head back home!
Cool. It is nice to see a Y6b in motion, even when it is not under steam.
She's a Y6a.
@@09JDCTrainManshe’s a y6c and they all are the same locomotive externally.
@colestrains1 No, 2156 is a Y6a. The Y6c was never built. But yeah, the earlier Y6s and Y6as, 2156 included, were upgraded to nearly, if not, completely match the Y6b.
Why y'all bullying about this
2156 is probably mixed Y6 (A/B)
Great video man! I skipped seeing her for something else.
Thanks!
Good video!!
Very neat! I went to Dollywood on Monday and got some shots and I uploaded a video on the train. Also I am going back sometime in early July to get the rest of my shots and some cab ride footage.
How do you get a cab ride exactly?
How did you get a cab ride? I've got a cousin that works in management at Dollywood and he never told me anything about cab rides.
Glad to help ya with this!
Couldn't have done it without you!
Will you go to Tweetsie Railroad Opening day? (When they decide to open.)
It depends on if I'm free that day. I'll definitely get up there at least once this year, hopefully Heritage Weekend
I'm hoping to chase the 611 back to Roanoke when it leaves NCTM.
Are they restoreing her to run on the main line agin in Pennsylvania are Virginia
I wish we could see 2156 go back in service. It's also being moved back to Roanoke I'm the near future. Hope they don't move the 4 or 1218 at VMT.
What will happen to her will she be in repair because I have a vcr tape of her running in the 80s-90s
This engine hasn't run since the 1950s your tape was probably Class A 1218. 2156 is unlikely to run again sadly.
SmokyMtnSteam dang it
Are they going to restore her so that they can run her on the main line in Virginia again are Pennsylvania
No, 2156 will remain on static display
Where is 2156 going
Riley Sanesh back to St. Louis
Dollywood is opened again. I got some footage of the train
I was there on Wednesday, had a great time despite the rain.
What is the Railbox car for?
Are they re building it or something
Static display
Aw
6:34 WHY Is Bro Sounding Like He Is Puffing Although He Is Getting Pulled By A Diesel 💀💀
One can hope she returns to Roanoke again sometime in 2025
Why 2025?
@SmokyMtnSteam Just my opinion, she arrived in 2015, so It makes sense to me for her to come and go every 5 years
