Nice to see a steam tourist excursion with no diesel on it and steam pulling both ways. I rode behind the 765 in eastern PA right near me for the second time in August 2015, 611 in Manassas, VA onto an NS freight only line in June 2016 (first time behind 611), and 2102 in October 2022 (third time riding behind 2102) all with no diesel on them. And I rode behind 611 again at Strasburg in Sept 2019. It's too bad that NS stopped hosting 611 steam excursions after May 2017 and the Amtrak excursion ban in March 2018 made it almost impossible to have excursions of any kind on class 1 railroads except what UP does. They were able to have a few 844 and Big Boy public excursions without Amtrak involvement.
Awesome video, man! It’s always nice to see 630 and 4501 double head from time to time! Speaking of 4501 and 630, what’s your overall opinion on both of their whistles?
Thank you! Glad you Enjoyed. I love the double headers. I loved the VS&W 3 chime on 630, but I also think the COG 6 Sounds great on 630. I love 4501s classic Princeton but the VS&W 3 chime I also think fits it well.

Great video! I really like that 6 chime they have on 630.
Southern Railway 630 and 4501 are the two amazing steam locomotives at the Tennessee Valley Railway Museum in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Great capture❤❤❤❤
Nice video!!
Great video man! I hope to make it out there either later this year or next year!
Great video! Sorry about the Monster Can
1:21 I preferred the previous whistle the 4501 had this one makes 4501 sound to aggressive
Well it was swapped out with the Princeton. I like both.

I really need to get my butt down to TVRM again.
You really do. It’s a great place to film. Easy chase nothing to stressful, and riding the train is just as much fun!
