Does anyone know the history of the VMT cars? First I have seen them.

Through the 90's whenever there was a steam excursion, railfans would chase
the trains and take film and video tapes of the excursions. The only way to get
a video of particular excursions was to buy a tape of it if you could find one.
Today with cellphones and YouTube excursion videos are so easy to find. This is
the first weekend of the 611 excursion and there are a lot already out there.
This video is of the the first trip this past Friday. Starting around 7 minutes
its mostly the J going backwards. As Harold said, it just doesn't look right.

The bilevel cars in N&W paint and lettered Virginia Museum of Transportation
are a nice touch. I wonder how long it will be before one of the O
manufacturers produce these.

Good afternoon. This is a video my brother in law took in Staunton today. I had
not seen the bilevel cars from the transportation museum. Just can’t get use to
seeing the “J” go backwards. Enjoy.
