That Mogul really is living up to its name doing what it was designed to do - perform dual service; hauling that revenue freight in, and then pick up a passenger consist on the way back. Ironically, the speed they are doing is pretty much what mainline track speed (30-40 mph) was for trains back in that loco's day...unless it was a fast passenger train.

What Fond memories. thank you for this video. I had the rare pleasure of riding, what I think, was the last run of the 2-6-2 #11, way back in the fall of 1970. I recall the station was up a fairly steep grade. i can't remember the name of the town any more. It was 51 years ago. Thanks again for this video.

I could just have not known all these years but the way it seems….steam is starting to make a comeback? I hear constantly of new restoration projects and now a couple that use them in temporary branch line services. This railway looks like an absolute delight to film and even better to model, my first small Dcc sound steamer is a 2-6-0 and it’s what made me fall in love with steam. I have about 10 more to buy now haha

TVRR does occasional revenue freight runs in Georgia and in the helix track in the mountains above Ocoee and Copper Hill, TN. The sugar company in Florida runs mostly revenue (that I've seen) behind their Pacific. Look for a video on the TVRR Summerville double header freight that was run three or four years back. They were aldo capturing period footage for movies so they had antique cars and trucks ar key grade crossings like Rock Spring.

Wilmington and Western RR serviced a brick factory at the end of their line where it tied into CSX line just beyond their shop in Marshalltown at one time. Don't know if they still do. They'd use one of their steam locomotives if they had one heated up. Not sure if they still service that brick yard or not. This was during 2002 - 2003 when I was there working for 9 months and watched them do this at that time.
