honestly a crime this video has less then 300 likes. it's utter eye candy and beautiful cinematography, one of the best 611 videos there is. props to you mate!
Joe, this might be THE best 611 video ever made. The camera work rivals multi person film crews. I can not thank you enough for making this video and all of your others. Can't wait to see what's next!
Thanks for the kind words - especially the part about it looking like a multi person film crew. It was a single camera for this one! (Spread across 3 days)
One of, if not, the best video I've seen to date of 611. Great action, cinematography, high quality picture. A+. 100. Two thumbs way up.👍👍 Excellent job on this video.
By far one of the best videos made of last fall's trips. So few people are able to combine videography, editing, and sound for steam as well as you have. Well done!
I'm not 100%, but I believe my gf and I were on that train that day. Hope you got a chance to ride the train at some point too! It's such a beautiful train and a fun ride through the valley. Pretty cool how YT recommended this to me out of the blue. This is some incredible footage!
Glad you enjoyed the video! This video features six runs edited together across the three days (Nov 3, 4, and 5, 2023) - so if you rode any of those dates, then yes!
@@fuscoproductions I realized shortly after posting the comment that we were on the train on the 5th. It's almost a shame to be on the train because you don't get to see the engine itself racing down the rails, but it was still a good time. Keep up the good work! The camera work and editing is really well done for this.
I knew this would be amazing right from the intro but when I got to the shot at 2:10 I was in awe. probably one of the best "pacing a steam locomotive" clips ever filmed
Thanks for the kind words. I know the pacing sequence wasn’t long (and for good reason - we didn’t want to hold up traffic!) but I think it did the trick. :-) Glad you like it!
Amazing stuff Joe! The Buckingham Branch trips were truly spectacular, and this video captures just how dramatic of a show #611 put out on those trips! I had a blast chasing them, and it looks like you sure did as well! Here’s to hoping we can all head to see her in Virginia again next year!
1:58 Joe. This… is incredible!! Your production is unlike any other! I’m glad you could make it to see the J on the main! Quite the hectic chase at such speeds 😂
For sure. I've never chased mainline steam before, the combination of the speed of the train itself and the thick crowds of other chasers was definitely stressful.
I swear, every single compilation I've seen of this 611 trip includes the underpass at Swoope. Such a perfect spot, praying on my hands and knees that this becomes an annual excursion.
@@charonsferryold I hope so too, this is a great line for the 611 with some gorgeous scenery. Funny you should mention Swoope - I almost didn’t include that shot. (Running less aggressively than the other shots, but I felt the scenery made up for it)
Really beautifully done; you're sense of cinema, your artful and intentional use of Black & White and most especially your sense of story make this a fine piece of work.
Beautiful footage! Interesting fact: I'm pretty sure that C&O 614 under Ross Rowland's leadership ran this route or a stretch very close to it in the 1980s. If so, easy to see why a number of heritage groups would want to run excursions on it. The scenery is glorious.
From start to finish I'm floored at how good this is. Truly cannot out Fusco the Fusco! (Although I will die on the hill for my shot at Staunton Station!)
We as people didn’t deserve this video, you’ve completely outdone yourself Joe…. I don’t care whatever video gets released by anyone this year, this can’t be topped

Fantastic video, Joe! This is by far my favorite 611 from last fall. Those were great trips, and you documented them beautifully!
Thanks, Mark! Glad I was able to be there. Mainline steam isn’t something to be taken for granted!
One of, if not, the best video I've seen to date of 611. Great action, cinematography, high quality picture. A+. 100. Two thumbs way up.👍👍 Excellent job on this video.
This is worthy of an Academy Award!
Absolutely magnificent 🙏🏿🤚🏿👍🏿👏🏿.

Mr Joe Fusco for an Oscar please! What an incredible film. Colour, lighting, mood...it has it all.
Glad you liked it! I do not think train videos qualify for Oscars, usually. 😂😂😂 But I appreciate the compliments.
Un chef d'oeuvre 🎉🎉
Wonderfully and masterly done sir.
The station scene at Staunton, in B&W, genius.
Those shots and pacing scenes are absolutely incredible!

An abosolutely beautiful presentation of the Queen of Steam! Probably the best I've seen from those trips! Excellent work!
Another stellar video, in the bag
Wow what an awesome video and enjoyed watching. Have a wonderful rest of your Tuesday.(Steve)
Wonderful video. Great lighting and shadows!
I enjoy watching your videos like no others. You certainly did 611’s season justice

This videography is second to none even from the start. Well freaking done dude!
Incredible video Joe! Great video as always!

@@douglas7046 thank you so much! I am glad you appreciate the use of black and white, sometimes it just feels right.
Your footage is always top notch, and this is no exception. Great video.

Loved it Joe!
fantastic on the N&W.
Killer video!!
I saw 611 5 times!
Your videos and edits are killing me, this is a huge masterpiece. I better start having my own channel and do some railfanning and stuff like that.
👏👏👏👏👏 Cool
If you don’t mind me asking, what equipment and stuff do you use in your videos? I’d like to start photography.
Hawt
How’s your day Joe?
This looks higher quality than cocomelon
