In the summer of 1994, The Norfolk & Western steam program was just months from being just a memory. One of their last trips was organized by the NRHS chapter in Cincinnati, from that city to Danville, Kentucky. We didn't ride the train, but we drove to Danville to see it, and caught these pictures from an old wooden bridge a few miles north of Danville, on the return to Cincinnati. What a beautiful, powerful locomotive she is!
