Tennessee Valley Railroad Steam Excursions
- Details
- By Marlene Dowd
On Saturday, October 4, on a beautiful fall day, my wife and I took a trip on the Summerville Steam Special, which runs each Saturday in the month of October. We rode on Steam Locomotive 4501 (2-8-2) built in 1911 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works. The engine has been restored to its original condition and is the flagship steam engine of the railroad. The TVRR owns three steam engines: 610, 630 and 4501.
We departed the Chattanooga railroad station on a 9-hour round trip ride to Summerville, GA, passing by diverse scenery including the Chickamauga Civil War Battlefield where the Confederates had been successful. On the way to Summerville, we dined in a restored 1922 dining car and had an excellent lunch. The staff, conductors, and crewmen were extremely hospitable and informative. The train consisted of a variety of restored old rolling stock. Our particular car, a Pullman built in 1922, was in excellent condition. The railroad operates many diverse train rides on the main line.
