21st Century Steam
The 21st Century Steam program is a program begun by the Norfolk Southern Railway in 2011, and features several classic steam locomotives pulling passenger excursions along Norfolk Southern rails in the eastern United States.
==Background==
Beginning in the 1960s, the Southern Railway, under the leadership of W. Graham Claytor, Jr., operated a popular steam excursion program. The Southern Railway operated some Southern veterans, such as Southern Railway 722 and Southern Railway 4501, as well as leased some locomotives which had served on non-Southern Railway tracks, such as Canadian Pacific 2839, Chesapeake and Ohio 2716 and Texas and Pacific 610. In 1982, the Southern Railway merged with the Norfolk & Western Railway to become Norfolk Southern. The new railroad, which had as its chairman and CEO, Robert B. Claytor, brother of the former Southern Railway president, retained the program. In fact, following the merger, the Norfolk Southern steam program acquired two new locomotives for its fleet: Norfolk & Western 611, which debuted in 1982, and Norfolk & Western 1218, which debuted in 1987.
In 1994, however, Norfolk Southern’s management decided to end the program. At the time, N&W 1218 was being overhauled in Birmingham, Alabama, so she was cosmetically restored and eventually was sent back to Roanoke, Virginia. Meanwhile, N&W 611 pulled her final excursion from Birmingham to Chattanooga, Tennessee on December 3 and arrived back in Roanoke four days later. In the end, both N&W 611 & 1218 would wind up on display at the Virginia Museum of Transportation in Roanoke. However in 2014 N&W 611 was removed from display and has returned to steam on May 9, 2015 at the North Carolina Transportation Museum
