I bought Engine 611 since the 611 locomotive is my favorite steam engine. Wish C&D had got the rights to use a photo on the tins as she is a beauty.
As for the tobacco, I bought some bulk during a sale. It's an interesting blend in there is vanilla in it, but it's more complex than say 1Q. I got quite a bit of the background tobacco which were earthy with the vanilla adds sweet top notes. With age there is a menthol herby hint ala crooner which makes me think there might be some deer tongue in this
It's a C&D ribbon cut. Easy to pack, easy to light. I got just a hint of tongue bite if I pushed too hard. If not, it was easy to keep tamed and burned nicely without relights.
It's not something that I'd buy again, but its worth smoking up the jar that I still have.
