I'm sitting here watching 1987 footage of #611 and #1218 pace each other on dual mainline tracks at speed West of Roanoke Va. 1218 had a freight consist while 611 14 passenger cars.  We just had no idea how lucky we were.....not a diesel in sight....a show that will NEVER ever happen again. I wish someone would have told me this was end of an era.....I honestly thought it was the start of a new era. Not my photo......

Freight consist? Was that the 100 car empty coal train that 1218 pulled?

No, different one.
