The Southern Railway
Here are a few shots on the Southern down near Duncan Tunnel (I believe). The Southern steam program of the time was really something, and 4501 was in the area on successive weekends.
Upon verification then, I believe we first see a set of engines pushing a train up the hill from New Albany, through the Duncan Tunnel. Nothing like the Southern Railway for using flags, running long hood forward, sporting high-short hoods, and a first-rate steam program.
Update: thanks to Jim Wrinn’s fine book on the subject, Steam’s Camelot, I can now say that the first images were probably Duncan Tunnel as I state here, but I now know the final image was taken in Huntingburg, Indiana.
Speaking of which, we must have been at that spot knowing 4501 was coming down the hill—which we see it bursting out of the tunnel soon enough. The final image was taken [in Huntingburg, Indiana] the next weekend when I snapped this picture prior to riding [to Evansville and return]. I believe the man in the green hat was the master mechanic in charge of the steam program for the Southern: Bill Purdie (who passed in 2010).
Three images by Richard Koenig; two taken June 4th and on on June 11th 1977.

Climbing Up and Out
Here we see the Burlington Northern run-through train on the Southern Railway near New Albany, Indiana. The train is climbing up and out of the Ohio River Valley at this spot, adjacent to Corydon Pike; the train will presently enter a tunnel and emerge just shy of the summit at a place called Duncan, just east of Georgetown.
Of course I would not know it’s the BN train without the presence of the wonderful, silver CB&Q crummy bringing up the rear.
