Review of 614 on the C&O - The Phoenix Engine Part 2

 4.3 of 5 (4)
On the home rails of the C&O, Chesapeake & Ohio 4-8-4 "Greenbrier" No. 614 puts on a show you won't soon forget. See beautiful runbys plus some of the most dramatic pacing scenes we've ever recorded as she climbs Alleghany Mountain, the hill she was built to beat!

You'll also see an interview with Ross Rowland, 614's owner and engineer, as he tells the story of the resurrection of the 614 out of the ashes of Reading 2101.
