Remarks & Notes

The springtime morning air is cool, but crisp in Salisbury, North Carolina as Roanoke's best, the J-Class 611, slowly eases out of town. With a train full of passengers, the 611 put on a once-in-a-lifetime show for everyone trackside. I believe Mr. O. Winston Link would have been proud.
