Norfolk & Western Galore at the Virginia Museum of Transportation, Roanoke, VA! 

Wow that’s amazing that the Norfolk and Western 1776 bicentennial engine is preserved

Best part of the vid was the manifest moving by at the end- UNTIL- I saw the pan am box😂😅😂😅😂😅

outstanding tour of this place :)

Nice! I been there before and it was amazing

Nice! Looks like a nice collection of equipment!

Lots of quirky stuff here Appreciate seeing that Wabash E8 Thank you for the tour

pretty cool...nice work...

Thanks for the museum tour Harrison! There's some VERY good stuff there, isn't there? Just a brief historic note for everyone, when the N&W began to dieselize in earnest the only diesels they bought were EMD's. The other diesels seen in N&W markings typically came from other railroads by way of mergers hence the Wabash and Nickle Plate units. Like yourself what that GG1's doing there I have NO idea, G's only came as far south as the now-gone Potomac Yard in Alexandria, just across the Potomac from Washington. Thanks again!

Excellent video!🚂🚂

12:50 that SDP45 was supposed to be restored to operational condition for a short line in Ohio that ran on former EL trackage (the SDP45s of Conrail were former Erie Lackawanna). If I remember correctly they were supposed to restore the Erie Lackawanna colors. unfortunately they weren't able secure the funds though and it was never moved out of Roanoke. it's the last SDP45 of the EL variant that still exists.

The long red caboose car you saw was probably a dynamometer car, I have one in Ho scale for the southern

9:45 I wonder if that would ever be used again?

Lots of fun to watch, as usual. Harrison, if you haven't seen them, try to see the great black & white photos O. Winston LInk made of the Norfolk & Western when it was still using steam. One place I've seen some is the Eastman photography museum in Rochester, NY. I also saw there a great HO model, probably by Otto Vondrak , based on one of Link's photo showing a N&W steam loco passing a drive-in movie theater. Link also photographed the workers at the N&W's steam locomotive shops in Roanoke, the most modern in the country.

the very rare GM EV1 just chilling in the background at 2:15

Did you get exclusive VIP tour? Nobody else is at the museum.🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂

They have more than I realized I also need to see 611 in general. Somehow, Carter has seen it, and I haven't. Did you try the 611 steak house while you were down there. It's right there in Roanoke

9:13 I really hope it runs again 😃

The 1776 used to be under the canopy. They must’ve moved it out to make room for the 611
