The Norfolk Southern Lawmen sing Rollin' Out Again

September 2011 will mark the return of steam to Norfolk Southern rails as Norfolk Southern Corporation and Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum launch a limited schedule of steam locomotive passenger excursions Labor Day weekend.

The excursion program, "21st Century Steam," will operate two trains each day Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 3 and 4, powered by recently restored Southern Railway Locomotive 630. Launch of the excursion program coincides with TVRM's Railfest commemorating the museum's 50th anniversary.

Awesome video! Even better than "Raise "Em Up".
Hats off to the band and the video team.

This was one of my favourite songs when I was younger. If only NS could bring back their steam program!

I love the Southern 4501. Plus I love this song by the lawmen too.

I just found this song, AND I LOVE IT!

4501 will be Rollin' out again this summer. My favorite 4501, the star of the southern steam fleet.

Nice video! A fitting "theme song" for the program! Is the program only focused on the Southern portion of the NS System or will system-wide tours be a possibility?

Either way, great to see the company reinstating the program with two of the engines from the original program from the '60s!

KEEP 'EM ROLLIN'!

Passenger Trains of Yesterday, & Today. Rolling out Again.

I don’t care if ns steam was ditched and sucks and you should feel bad, I still apreciate this song and the steamers that worked down south for ns, this song is still a true living image of steam for years to come once Covid-19 is over! #LONGLIVESTEAM!

2:16 When is TVRM 610 going to Steam Again?

[jacobjcb]

I'm glad steam trains all over the world from the USA to the Canada Australia, New Zealand, my home country of England in the UK and many non English speaking countries too are being restored to run on the mainline and on heritage railways too
I take my hat off to all the enthusiasts who play their part in restoring these old iron beasts

[rockyfanatic]

You guys should run a NS Lawmen special with that logo on 630 run a special excursion train with that the lawmen on the train playing previous hits

[santinotrains]

This is probably my favorite train song out there and it about steam engines the real kings of the railroads

RIP 21st Century Steam
Thanks Corporate NS
