X-Army 610 is in TVRM collection. Got a photo of it coming through here
Altavista, VA in the '70's on a flat car. I think it is the locomotive used
in the Country music video 'Long Black Train'. Sister engines were at Ft.
Eustis where, I believe, 610 came from.

Might be the RRR loco; 610 sounds mighty familiar.

Don't they have one at the Great Smoky Mountain in Western NC? Isn't
there one at the TVRM in Chattanooga (610)?
