I am looking specifically for Lynchburg, VA, but if anyone has the whole thing it may be useful to others, so please post it! I am curious as to why FireUp611 says the move will be on May 30, and May 31. I assume she will be making the entire move in one day and have some kind of venue in Roanoke on the 31, but I'd like to be sure before I make the 3 hour trek on the 30.

Thanks,
Justin

This is also from the FireUp611 website..

On Saturday, join us as Roanoke welcomes home their Spirit of Roanoke.

On Sunday, join the VMT for a close look at the 611. Peek inside the cab. Talk to the mechanical team. Meet prestigious rail historians. Celebrate our rail heritage.


So it looks like the move will be all in one day with festivities going on when it arrives and into that next day. But more information is slated to come out on May 1st so keep an eye out
