Excerpt:

This September, Virginia travelers have a rare chance to ride behind the legendary No. 611, the sole surviving Class J 4-8-4 steam locomotive, a sleek black beauty once hailed as the “Queen of Steam.” The special edition Shenandoah Valley Limited journey will run for just five weekends, beginning Sept. 26, carrying passengers through a blaze of autumn color in the George Washington and Jefferson National Forests. With its billowing plumes of smoke set against fiery ridgelines, the excursion offers a one-of-a-kind way to see Virginia’s peak foliage season.
