This outstanding program is hosted by Jim Boyd, Editor of Railfan & Railroad Magazine. It opens with a visit to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, featuring recently-rebuilt ex-Army 2-8-0 610 pulling a chartered photo freight. Multiple photo runbys were performed at many scenic locations along the line. Regular passenger operations are also covered.
Next, handsome Atlanta & West Point heavy 4-6-2 290 - in authentic passenger livery - powers a chartered passenger excursion. Three runbys at the scenic South Peachtree Creek Bridge are included.
Jim then follows two steam ferry runs, with classic Southern Railway 2-8-2 4501 hauling freight and powerful Norfolk & Western Class J 4-8-4 611 heading a passenger train.
As a special bonus, you'll see beautifully-restored Eastern Tennessee & Western North Caroline narrow-gauge 4-6-0 12 pull Tweetsie Railroad excursion trains. The stack talk is hot and heavy as the spotless green-and-gold locomotive works hard to surmount a 5% grade on the way to an imposing wooden trestle bridge.
