On May 15th, 2011, Penn Rail Videos was invited to be apart of a special celebration. This celebration would congratulate Strasburg Railroad trainman, conductor, fireman, and engineer Nathaniel Guest on his graduation from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY. The train is dubbed as the "Cornell Limited" and is reminiscent of the trains that the Delaware Lackawanna & Western Railroad operated for the university. The train featured invited guests, and a specially-made reproduction drumhead, identical to the ones found on DL&W trains. Another neat fact about railroads connected with Cornell University is that the Lehigh Valley Railroad chose "Cornell Red" to be its official color, and is the same red color you see on the pennants that are adoring engine #475. #475 is also fitted with a "plaque" similar to the ones worn by Pennsylvania RR steam locomotive (i.e 4-4-0 #1223).
