Rediscovery of 611 Images, But Where and When?
Author: aehouse

I was digging through some shelves today and came upon an album of long-lost black and white negatives.

The images are of various railfanning trips I made during the period 1970-1986.

Among the shots were these two of N&W 611, but I have no recollection of when or where they were taken.

Does anyone have a thought?

I don't know where they are, but they are great shots.

Based on the pole line visible in the photos, I would guess former N&W, but I don't know where.

Photo two has a wonderful 3-D feeling to it.

Judging by the non existent coal boards and striped water tender and former SOU coaches in consist. Sometime between 1983-1988. Where though I do not know.

Turns out that they are both of the inaugural Roanoke-Norfolk run over Labor Day 1982. The double track image is at Blue Ridge, Va., and the single track line shot was taken a few miles east of Lynchburg.
