From the website description, it seems like unless we fork out $200.00, we will not be able to take a picture. I'm only a bit over an hour away, so it will be worth the ride, just to see if I can find a spot somewhere along or near the right of way.
Plenty of places to take photos. The $200 will be for the Lerro ran photo charter. These are very well done and I have attended a few in the past.
Drive into Strasburge. Park along one of the crossings and wait for the trains to pass. The 611 will only be pulling 3 trips that day, they will be running their normal trains also. Usually in the morning you can see a train come by every 15-20 minutes.

If you come down the 27th or 28th let me know. I can show you some great spots.
